In the study of contemporary environmental ethics, some new trends of thought in East Asian cultural perspectives have emerged, which are of great value for further coordinating the relationship between human and nature. Although the Western non-anthropocentrism environmental ethics has played a positive role in environmental protection, it also has various shortcomings in theory and practice. It needs to supplement and improve with the new environmental ethics of East Asian culture. These environmental ethics thoughts based on the traditional view draw on the perspectives of Western phenomenology and cognitive philosophy, and propose new ideas with East Asian cultural characteristics from the aspects of practice subject, realization way, and value judgment criteria, which help to reveal deep connection between ethics and native culture, and makes environmental ethics play a more effective role in protecting the ecological environment and promoting the development of human society.
