What is environmental virtue? Is developing good habits enough?
Would a limit on per capita emissions be fair? Is rewilding just
another form of the human domination of nature? Exploring these
questions and more, this book provides an up-to-date and balanced
introduction to the field. It first examines ethical theory, then
ties theory into practice, showing how ethics guide environmental
policies, but also how actions shape environmental values. Updated
and expanded to engage with the latest scholarship, scientific
discoveries, and societal challenges, this 2nd edition features: ·
New sections on food ethics, climate change denial, climate
activism, and the Anthropocene · Contemporary case studies
including lab-grown meat, Extinction Rebellion, and European
rewilding · Expanded coverage of non-Western ethics, including
Indigenous ethical perspectives and African relational ethics ·
Updated discussion questions, further reading sections, and online
resources Exploring the possibilities and limitations inherent in
both classical ethical models and modern theoretical approaches to
the environment, this is a key resource for teaching students to
think ethically about the world we live in.
