The environmental knowledge re-states the being´s existence in time and the condition of to know along history; it is established in new identities and places where life goes on; recognizes the power of knowledge and the wish for power as desire for to know. The environmental knowledge reborns the utopical thinking and the wish for freedom in a new rationality which mingles the severity of reason and the excesses of desire, the ethics and knowledge, the rational thinking and the sensuality of life. The environmental rationality opens the way for a re-erotization of the world, transgressing the established order which imposes the prohibition of being. The environmental knowledge, interrupted by the being´s incompletude, perverted by the power of knowledge and affected by the relation with other people, makes categories to apprehend the reality since the limit of existence and understanding, the difference and the understanding about what means to be another.

Palabras clave : Environmental Understanding; Environmental Rationality; Dialogue; Complexity.
