The book covers a wide variety of environmental topics from those as global as overfishing, climate change, ocean acidification, and e-waste, to those topics as local as whether we should place salt on the driveway during winter, construct rain gardens, or believe we have a duty to hunt.  The book also features an easy to read, yet rigorous introductory section exposing readers to ethical theories and approaches to environmental ethics. By interweaving these theoretical considerations into long and short case studies, Murray illuminates a comprehensive range of the most pressing environmental issues facing our biosphere both today and in the future.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAcknowledgments Introduction\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t Part 1 – Theory and Applied Theory\t\t\t\t\t\t Chapter 1 – General Moral Theories\t\t\t\t\t\t Utilitarianism\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t Kantian Deontology\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t Virtue Ethics\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t Value\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t Chapter 2 – Applications and Approaches to Environmental Ethics\t Applied Ethics\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t Anthropocentric Environmental Ethics\t\t\t\t\t\t Biocentrism vs. Ecocentrism\t\t\t\t\t\t\t Deep Ecology\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t Social Ecology\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t Ecofeminism\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t Leopold’s Land Ethic\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t Extensions of Utilitarianism\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t Extensions of Deontology\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t Extensions of Virtue Ethics\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t Part 2 – The Cases\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t Chapter 3 – What is Natural?
