PHIL 313 (3)
An in-depth investigation of our ethical relationship to the environment and the ecological systems of which we are a part. Focus will be on four central issues—the relation of the environment to (1) skeptical and leading theories in ethics, (2) the moral standing of animals, future generations, and the natural world itself, (3) theories of ecological justice, and finally (4) the role of various eco-political movements in shaping the climate change debate.
