Until recently, given the relative scarcity of courses in environmental ethics and philosophy, maintaining a collection of syllabi for such courses was an invaluable service. But keeping a definitive list has become impossible and largely irrelevant with the surge of offerings in recent years. For this reason the following inventory is selective: syllabi have been chosen for their innovation, distinctiveness, breadth of coverage, coverage of lesser known issues, and so forth. If you have a syllabus that you would like to have posted please email ISEE at enviroethics@hotmail.com.
