Abstract

The book "Environmental ethics, sustainability and decisions: literature problems and suggested solutions" by Fabio Zagonari explores the ethical dimensions of environmental sustainability and the decision-making processes involved. The author argues that sustainability is an ethical issue and discusses the importance of institutions in shaping behaviors and suggesting values. The book provides an overview of environmental ethics, sustainability paradigms, and decision-making methods, with a focus on maximizing welfare and minimizing inequalities. It emphasizes the interdisciplinary nature of environmental sustainability and the need for consistency and transparency in research and decision-making. The book offers simplified models and examples for both students and researchers to understand the complexities of sustainable decision-making. [Extracted from the article]
