Keywords:

Ecolinguistics; university curricula; multidisciplinarity.

Abstract

The aim of this paper is twofold. I would like to provide an outline of the ecolinguistics approach to the study of language and languages. Provide arguments for putting ecolinguistics on the syllabus of university programs though it is not clear to me whether its home should be a linguistics, environmental studies, geography, psychology or another department.
