Rachel Carson's Environmental Ethics

Educational Resource
Author:Cafaro, Philip
Abstract:

This essay by Philip Cafaro discusses Carson's environmental philosophy and asks the questions -- what are the 'foundations' of Rachel Carson's environmental ethics? Otherwise put: how does she justify her three main evaluative premises (or her two controversial ones, concern for human health presumably needing no justification)?
