Abstract
While extreme reactions or non-traditional actions to protect the biophysical (natural) environment are labelled as practising radical environmentalism, philosophers continue to look for enlightenment from the natural environment and practitioners carry on their long and hectic journey to fight against environment pollution. Yet, the history of scholarship attention to management of organizations in the natural environment is relatively brief (Starik and Marcus, 2000). The natural environment is being ignored by most in management theory (Hart, 1995).
