Short description:	The course aims to acquaint students with the main currents in environmental philosophy, focusing primarily on the 20th century – from the birth of the ecological movement in the 1960s to the present day. Environmental philosophy raises fundamental questions about the relationship between humanity and the world of nature and non-human animals, both wild and domesticated. During the course we will look at the main areas of the philosophy of environmental protection and try to use the tools of philosophy to understand environmental problems such as population, climate change, energy and biological diversity.
