Abstract

After taking seriously the idea that nature should have human rights argued by Cormac Cullinan in Orion Magazine (January/February 2008), we examined the lessons that could be learned from the tree that owns itself in Athens, Georgia. The point is to engage others in environmental and science education in a critical conversation about how school would have to prepare students to deal with rights for plants, as distinct from sentient animals and inanimate objects. As discussions of rights often neglects the interests and inference rights of non-sentient plants in the school curriculum and these nonhuman species are objectified for human needs, there is very little written about plant rights in science education. This es-say is an imagined question of what science education would look like if rights for plants were adopted by humans. We address the idea of rights for the Tree that Owns Itself in Athens, Georgia, United States, and what science educators and their students can and should learn from addressing these rights. We explore rights for plants more specifically through consequentialist and nonconsequentialist reasoning and the nurturing relationship between humans and nonhuman species. We connect with scholars who argue for biocentric pluralism as a guiding philosophy, while using this theory to develop some edu-cational implications of rights for nature within science education respectively.

Özet

Cormac Cullinan tarafından Orion Magazinde (Ocak/Şubat 2008) doğa insan haklarına sahip olmalı düşüncesinin tartışılması konusunu dikkate alarak Georgia, Athens‘de ağacın kendisinden öğrenilebilir derslerini inceledik. Esas husus hissiz hayvanlar ve cansız objelerden farklı olarak öğrencilerin bitki hakları ile ilgilenmesi hususunda okul tarafından nasıl hazırlanması gerektiği ile ilişkili olarak çevre ve fen eğitiminde hassas bir korumada diğerlerini meşgul etmekti. Haklara ilişkin tartışmalar okul müfredatındaki hissiz bitkilere ilgileri ve çıkarsamaları göz ardı ettiği ve bu insan olmayan türlerin insana ihtiyaçları nedeniyle nesneleştirildiği için fen eğitiminde bitki hakları ile ilgili yazılan çok az şey var. Bu makale bitki haklarının insanlar tarafından alındığında nelerin olabileceğine ilişkin imgesel bir soru ile ilgilidir. Biz, ağaç için hakların düşüncesini ele alarak fen eğitimcilerinin ve onların öğrencilerinin bu hakları adres göstermekten ne öğrenmeleri gerektiğini ya da ne öğrenebileceklerini ele aldık. İnsan ve insan dışındaki türler arasındaki ilişkileri besleyerek özellikle consequalistik ve nonconsequentialistik muhakeme bitki haklarını keşfettik. Biosentrik çoğulculuğu rehber felsefe olarak tartışan âlimleri bağladık ki bu teoriyi fen eğitimi içinde ayrı olarak doğanın haklarının olası bazı eğitsel etkilerini geliştirmek için de kullanırlar.
