Environmental ethics is a field of ethics research tackling increasingly urgent global issues. It is important to keep abreast of developments linked to the acceleration in climate change and increase in ecological threats. The future of humankind may depend on environmental ethics solutions, which are particularly reliant on cross-disciplinary research, ranging from the natural sciences and philosophy to social, political and even religious studies. This is the kind of approach adopted in Environmental Ethics by Robin Attfield, emeritus professor of philosophy at Cardiff University. The book was published as part of the Oxford University Press series, A very short introduction, which introduces various topics to anyone wanting an approachable way into a new subject. Robin Attfield was asked to write this volume as he is a world-renowned authority in the field
