The Irony of Environmentalism: The Ecological Futility but Political Necessity of Lifestyle Change
Ethics and International Affairs 19 (3):77-89 (2005)
Abstract
Environmentalists argue that we need to reduce population and consumption to protect the environment, and that this is something we can all do by individually choosing to have smaller families and buying fewer products. This article questions the ecological impact of such choice.Author's Profile
