A comprehensive introductory textbook that integrates environmental ethics with social and religious perspectives, this cross-disciplinary approach helps students understand the depth and breadth of environmental issues in a globally relevant way. Environmental problems are explained by ecological, social, ethical, and religious dimensions that inspire environmental conservation. It underlines the reasons why intrinsic values of nature, and those who inhabit it, must be taken into consideration when making decisions that affect them.
