A New Environmental Ethics: The Next Millennium for Life on Earth, 2nd Edition, by Holmes Rolston III, surveys diverse approaches to environmental ethics alongside critical appraisals of academic accounts. Written by a thinker often described as the father of environmental ethics, the volume offers a forward-looking analysis of human responsibilities toward nature.
The text investigates ethical relationships across multiple dimensions of life, considering human landscapes, animals, individual organisms, species biodiversity, and ecosystem land ethics.
Intended as a complement to textbooks and anthologies in the field, this edition asks readers whether they want to live a de-natured life on a de-natured planet.
