African Environmental Ethics (Book)
This is a book that focuses on under-explored and often neglected issues in contemporary African environmental philosophy and ethics. Critical issues such as the moral status of nature, African conceptions of animal moral status and rights, African conceptions of environmental justice, African relational Environmentalism, are addressed in this book. It is unique in so far as it goes by exploring how these views might be understood differently in order to get a clear view of African environmental ethics. Against the background where environmental problems such as pollution, climate change, and global warming are plain to see, it becomes useful to examine how African conceptions of environmental ethics could be understood in order to confront some of these problems facing the whole world. This book will be of value to any individual who cares about the environment and more importantly, would want to be part of working in the area of African Philosophy, African Environmental Ethics and Global Ethics in general. The book has 20 chapters and one amazing thing about each chapter is that, they were all written by different individuals living in different parts of Africa. The last two Chapters however is of interest to me because they were written by Ghanaians and they clearly talk about some environmental problems that I have been trying to talk about on this noble platform. An online version of this book is available and I would encourage each individual here to have a glimpse of it and endeavor to read it.

Hello Justice
This book looks great. I like this kind of books where it is based on the real story of the people. I've never been to Africa, but by reading this book, I think I will be able to indirectly feel the mindsets and lifestyles of African people. And since there are a lot of wild animals that are to be preserved in Africa, I think that the each story will be interesting to me.
I will try the book one day!

Hey Justice!
It's Lisa your mentor.
It's great that you have a book about animal rights and morals here for this is not the topic that I see very often in Tunza!
Most of the time, animals are dealt as part of big mother nature, not in terms of animal rights and dignity so I welcome your recommendation of a book very much.
Also more generally I like how the book presents a rather unfamiliar view of projecting moral status on nature and environment.
I think it will be really insightful for many of us environmentalists here!
Thank you so much:)
