A Panoramic Definition of Nature's Value and Its Philosophical Defence

The traditional axiology and the natural axiology are quite different in their definition of nature's value.In the traditional axiology,nature's value is nothing but the tool value that meets the humans' need,while in the natural axiology,nature not only has intrinsic value but also has extrinsic value.The need-meet style relation between the subject and the object is only the representation of value,and value must have its substantiality first of all.Nature's value,on one hand represents the serviceability that nature as the objective substance has to meet the subject's need,and on the other hand,represents the need-meet style relation between the subject and the object.In the panoramic perspective,nature represents as united,objective and ecological natures,and nature's value represents as intrinsic,extrinsic and human-oriented ecological values,of which the human-oriented ecological value of nature is the highest imperative for the existence and development of humans.It is possible that this view will meet four reprehensions,but its basic position is philosophically defensible.
