The framework is developed using a metafunctional approach to reveal human-nature relations following the basic theories of Systemic Functional Linguistics.In particular， experiential， interpersonal， and textual meanings are explored concerning a set of concrete examples.This book represents an effort to reveal the potential of the Chinese language in construing ecological relations in discourses and proposes ecological discourse analysis as a powerful tool for raising ecological awareness and addressing ecological issues.
This is essential reading for students and researchers interested in the ever-growing ecological issues and the part human beings can play in the game.It provides a critical approach featuring discourse analysis， human-place relations and ecological ideologies.
