This research explores the Ecosophy of discourse produced around the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC). The study starts with building a corpus of texts, taken from the official website of the CPEC. The list of 18 key words was made, based on three United Nations (UN) Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) out of 17 goals. Theoretical framework of Stibbe’s (2015) ecocritical discourse perspective is used to develop the Ecosophy of the CPEC, while analytical framework is based on three UN sustainable development goals outlined in 2015. Corpus linguistics as a methodology is used to undergo quantitative and qualitative analysis. In quantitative analysis, collocates were analyzed by identifying Mutual Information (MI) score. The highest MI score (11.26013) is gained by the collocation named CPEC-Deforestation and the lowest is of CPEC-Water (0.87352) which show that the infrastructure project of the CPEC caused deforestation and less affected water.

This paper addresses the heterogeneity and intricacy in the environmental discourses on blogs at the International Institute of Environment and Development (IIED), contrary to the perception of the discourses as homogenous. The study relies on the ideas of internal diversity provided by Guattari in order to analyze 80 purposely chosen blogs through the application of both quantitative and qualitative research. The study employs AntConc software to identify various ecosophical stances and thematic congruences across these discourses. The results indicate that the ecological perspective is diverse encompassing a complex, inconsistent and even contradictory human-environment relationship, consistent with the deep ecology proposed by Guattari. The insights indicate that the helpful discourse is not a single expression that can be useful, and it would be significant to acknowledge positional multiplicity in environmental decision-making and further studies.
