Abstract
The traditional Chinese culture is broad and profound, and the philosophy of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism contains rich ecological ethics. It is obvious that the ancients emphasized on conforming to nature, attaching importance to ecological protection and the ecological concept of living in harmony with nature, such as the Taoist idea of "integration of humanity and nature", the Confucian realm of "the wise man enjoys the mountain, the benevolent enjoys the water", the Buddhist concept of "everyone is equal". The values of traditional Chinese ecological ethics are conducive to reconstructing the harmonious ecosystem between people and society, and fundamentally solve the current ecological crisis and ecological imbalance.
