In this study, Clare Palmer challenges the popular conception that
process thinking offers an unambiguously positive contribution to
the philosophical debate on environmental ethics. She critically
examines the approach to ethics which may be derived from the work
of process thinkers such as A. N. Whitehead and Charles Hartshorne,
pointing out questions about justice and respect for individual
integrity which are raised. With these questions in mind, she
compares process ethics to a variety of other forms of
environmental ethics, as well as deep ecology. This comparative
study reveals a number of difficulties associated with process
thinking about the environment. Although some reformulations of
process philosophy in the light of these difficulties are offered,
the author suggests that a question mark should remain over the
contribution which process philosophy can make to environmental
ethics.
