Resumo(s)
A Geologia tem contribuído para uma visão instrumental da Natureza, principalmente na
vertente económica associada à gestão de recursos. Esta perspectiva antropocêntrica tem sido
considerada responsável pela presente crise ambiental. Nesta comunicação defende-se que a
Geologia pode potenciar outras formas de olhar a Natureza menos centradas no ser humano,
partindo das implicações valorativas de alguns conceitos geológicos e dos aspectos
metodológicos que caracterizam esta ciência, não tendo necessariamente de ser associada à
responsabilidade pela referida crise.
SUMMARY Geology has been responsible for an instrumental vision of nature, helping in the economic management of resources. This anthropocentric view has been accused for the environmental crisis in today’s world. In this presentation we argue that Geology can promote ways of thinking that are less centred on the human being, on the basis of giving value implications to some geological concepts and methodological processes that characterize this science. In this way, we try to show how Geology doesn’t have to be necessarily linked to values that are responsible for the above crisis referred.
