The crisis of ecology and existence are the most serious issues that human beings have to face up now. Twenty-First Century will be the age of ecological thought. And how we to respond ecological disasters, it can be based on the idea from thought of Zhuangzi’s ecological aesthetics. Today's global environment has completely changed, We must once again raise the old question:「Where do we go the wrong way actually?」 My thesis starts a contemporary reflection from Taoist philosophy which is constructed by the most representative philosophers- Laozi and Zhuangzi. In their classic books, we can find out a wealth of ideas of international ecological ethics and wisdom of ecological diversity which provide a paradigm for human beings. Therefore, I think it has an important reference and guidance through the search of Laozi’s and Laozi’s thoughts of ecological aesthetics. And then, I want to enrich and improve the Zhuangzi’s ecological aesthetics and provide different resources and ecological wisdom inspiration. Furthermore, I hope to make a contribution for the study of future ecological aesthetics through this research, and gradually construct a high degree of ecological civilization.
