Challenging contemporary environmentalism, Keekok Lee argues that modernization has transformed nature into a manmade artifact, questioning the assumption that reducing pollution can 'save' the planet without societal disruption. The book explores the value of nature beyond human interests, examining aesthetic, spiritual, and biological dimensions. Lee proposes a reconfiguration of environmental ethics, distinguishing between 'natural' entities, which hold moral significance due to their independence, and 'artefactual' creations that serve human purposes.
