Philosophical engagement with environmental issues has developed, deepened, and broadened through the last decades of the twentieth century and into the twenty-first century, alongside the increase in public concern for these issues. Environmental philosophy no longer seems quite the faddish or niche enterprise it might have appeared to be when it first began to emerge in the 1960s and 1970s. It is relatively hard now to find philosophers willing to declare that, although important, environmental issues are not philosophically important, such that philosophers qua philosophers have nothing of interest to say about them. On the contrary, most Anglophone philosophy departments have at least some environmental ethics or philosophy provision at the undergraduate level and many also have staff publishing in the area. General philosophy journals regularly publish work on environmental issues, and a range of more specialist environmental ethics and philosophy journals have appeared in recent decades.
