Abstract: The relationship between man and nature is a deeprooted problem. Since the beginning of human being，man and nature have built a relationship，which changes constantly as time goes by. From the unification at the beginning to the anthropocentricism later，man and nature are drifting apart and get caught up in the paradox of modern civilization，that is，man has been pursuing his ideal home land，but at the same time，he has ruined the environment of his own existence and development. Faced with such crisis and dilemma，human beings must reconstruct their relationship with nature and realize that man and nature can form an organic whole through the relationship of each being the subject. Establishing low carbon society and innovating development mode are the necessary choice for the current development of China and are the new way to mollify their contradictions and to harmonize the relationship between man and nature.

Key words: low carbon economy, man and nature, anthropocentric, conception of nature, harmony
