Properly understood economics and ecology should be the same science, or more precisely, economics = ecology + psychology. There are a few schools of applied ecology (e.g. Permaculture) and the result is a new kind of basis for food production that allows us to meet our needs in harmony with Nature. E. O. Wilson has proposed setting aside half of Earth for non-human nature: https://www.half-earthproject.org/ https://www.half-earthproject.org/ > Half-Earth is a call to protect half the land and sea in order to manage sufficient habitat to reverse the species extinction crisis and ensure the long-term health of our planet. If we were to do this and also convert our food production system to be ecologically harmonious we could solve most of our problems.
