Ecological crisis is a promient problems in today's society, it is directly related to the survival of mankind. How to solve this problem is a major issue which human faces today., There is no doubt that science and technology are important means to solve this problem, but it should be noted that when we trust in science, do not be too obsessed with science and consider science as the only means. to solve the ecological crisis, This attitude itself is unscientific, it is an attitude of scientism. There is no doubt the ecological crisis is accompanied by the emergence of modern science there, why we can not find the relationship between science and the ecological crisis? Scientism is closely related to the ecological crisis and it can be said that scientism is one of the important reasons of ecological crisis. So in addressing the ecological crisis, we can not hold a attitude of scientism, considering the science and technology as the only means to solve the ecological crisis, and if so, humans will fall into a deeper crisis, resulting in devastating and irreversible consequences. So it must be cautious when we use science and technology, we should use him in favor of man's place. This requires us to have a clear understanding of science, it is just the task. I want to accomplish in this paper.This article analysis the causes of scientism, the evolution of scientism, the main features of scientism, and the causes of eco-ism, the main idea of eco-ism systematically based on the definition of "scientism" and "eco-ism". it clarify the relationship between scientism and ecological crisis in various aspects and levels from the perspective of ecological crisis, and revealing the limitations of scientism through the comparison between scientism and eco-ism.environmental problem is becoming increasingly prominent in our country, I think that we need to have a clear understanding of science and a clear understanding of scientism for making good use of the power of science to solve these problems. And this also requires we have a correct view of the world, and requires we develop a appropriate policy under the guidance of correct concept of science to solve the plight of our existence.
