“…In the climax of the essay, he goes out of his house and over the mountains to observe how the trees behave during the storm. He even climbs up a tall Douglas Spruce to experience the power of the Storm [4] ." Although the story records the author's personal experience in exploring the wilderness in the California forests, the title, structure and content of this essay suggest that the Storm has become the protagonist of the non-human world in this essay.…”

An analysis of A Wind-storm in the Forests from the perspective of Material Ecocriticism reveals that Storm has a threedimensional connotation of the agentic power, the ability to generate meaning and narrative capacity. The Storm has the agency to nourish and soothe the trees, and to present its invisible figure through the trees. Under the construction of social discourse, the storm represents the ecosystem of all living things, linking humans and trees into an interactive community with equal role. The Storm also tells the story of the human initiative into the wilderness and the equality between man and trees, reflecting the ecological text of humans interacting with non-human matters and coexisting with nature equally under the contemporary discourse.

These studies describe the influence of humans on their environment either directly or indirectly.…”

The approach used was an ecocritical approach. The data collection technique applied was documentation. The data analysis activities consisted of data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions/verification. The results showed that the natural problems contained in the novel of Mata and Manusia Laut were natural problems and artificial or influenced by human behaviour. Non-anthropocentric problems were weather problems in Kaledupa and Masalembo, high waves caused by the gravity of the moon, tsunamis, and earthquakes. Meanwhile, the problems that were directly influenced by the attitudes and behaviours of the characters consisted of the problem of fish bombs, sea water pollution with garbage, and the death of the mother octopus. The results of this study could be used to strengthen the character and attitude of loving the environment.
