Environmental Philosophy in Desperate Times examines environmental philosophy in the context of climate denial, inaction, and thoughtlessness. It introduces readers to the varied theories and movements of environmental philosophy. But more than that, it seeks to unsettle our received understanding of the world and our role in it, especially through consideration of Indigenous, feminist, and radical voices.

KEY FEATURES
- An impassioned introduction to environmental philosophy.
- Many perspectives are examined, including traditional western views, as well as Indigenous, feminist, and radical approaches.
- Examines the epistemic and political obstacles that have slowed our response to climate change, and the methods by which those obstacles can be overcome.
- Questions for discussion and further reading suggestions are included.
