Do we owe our duties to future generations? Do animals have rights? Should nature be respected for its own sake or only as a resource for human use?

Written in an accessible style and including many case studies, Environmental Law and Ethics is a concise text not only for students of law and related courses but also for all who are interested in environmental matters.
