Human beings in pursuit of a better material life continue to engage in economic activities. Under the great emphasis on science and technology, land resources are often excessively or improperly developed. This endangers the world's natural ecological balance, brings human habitation of the earth under siege, and directly or indirectly leads to climate change issues. Based on contemporary environmental philosophy theory, this study re-examines human land ethics from two aspects: humans and the environment. Should consideration be given to land ethics and its associated proposals for land use, including examination of execution of land-use management plans, implementation of ecological and sustainable living environment concepts, and implementation of energy conservation and carbon emissions reductions practices. Land use legislation may draw attention to and effectively address environmental problems.
