Epistemological bases of conventional modern science

There is a strong tradition in ecologism that argues that conventional modern science is unsuitable for explaining the current environmental crisis. Therefore it states it is necessary to develop a new science grounded in epistemological bases different from those of conventional modern science. Although some of the epistemological bases of conventional modern science are mentioned in several publications, attempts to present them in an orderly and complete way have not been found. As a result, the present paper aims at compiling the epistemological bases of conventional modern science scattered in the literature and present them in a systemized way.
