Abstract

Ecological issues are often seen as only one of the many "problems" societies face today, even though they go deep and affect everything - from physical disruption and displacement to perhaps more subtle long-term changes in temperature, flora, and fauna that alter the face of the planet and the norms of everyday life. As a result of this view, the study of the environment has been siloed into the realm of "environmental sciences" with a few "environmental fill-in-the-social-science-blank" subfields scattered about. This is not to say that only "environmental" problems are important, but that across all disciplines and subfields, greater attention needs to be paid to these issues - especially to the ways in which environmental problems intersect with other social problems, including those of race, gender, and class.
