Sumario: | Examining the issues of ethics and justice as they apply to the environment, this book starts from the observation that the parallel expositions of environmental ethics and environmental justice appear to have few points of contact. & amp;nbsp;Environmental justice is highly politicized and concerned with human access to the environment and the unequal exposure to environmental pollution. & amp;nbsp;It grew out of the US civil rights movement, the liberal tradition of rights, and Rawls' description of justice as fairness. & amp;nbsp;It is thus almost exclusively anthropocentric, and does not address the questio. |
