My understanding is that the current environmental cris is not just a crisis of free market capitalism. It is also a crisis of reason, of an instrumental rationality: something is considered rational if the best or most efficient means are to achieve the desired ends.

The desired ends for economic rationality in a liberal capitalist society are those of wealth creation; for political rationality it is power. This results in the destruction of life on earth.

What is blocked by this mode of rationality is the re-situating human beings in ecological terms, as embodied ecological beings dependent on nature, and recasting the non-human world in ethical terms. This is what we would call ecological rationality.
