Whatever its origins, EVE (Environmental Virtue Ethics) now appears
to be a vital part of the environmental philosophy landscape.
Whether you look to it for an alternative to other theoretical
approaches to environmental ethics, or as a complement to them,
there are a number of ways EVE clarifies our environmental choices
and responsibilities. This is an exciting collection that addresses
compelling issues, not only in EVE, but in environmental philosophy
more broadly. In addition to their individual merits, these
articles collectively demonstrate the value of EVE to environmental
philosophy and the value of environmental philosophy in helping
create sustainable societies and preserve nature. Recent movement
on negotiating a strong successor to the Kyoto Treaty gives some
hope that the world is waking up to the moral imperative to protect
the Earth. But whether people will be willing to ratchet down our
economic demands and reshape our economies to reflect this
hoped-for moral progress remains to be seen. Previously published
in the Journal of Agricultural and Environmental Ethics, Volume 23
(1-2), 2010
