(20 minutes) Assign and begin reading “Environmental Ethics: An Introduction to Environmental Philosophy” by Joseph Dejardins- due Tuesday, start of online class. 

• First- quick review: what do you remember about RAWLS?
• Next- Tuesday's assigned reading: Dejardins does a really nice job summarize the philosophies we’ve studied so far but applies them to environmental ethics and environmental racism, so it will be a foundational text for our EJ unit!
• Let's read an excerpt from bottom of page 239 and top of page 240
• Then, we'll read the first 2 pages and discuss the questions on page 2 about refugees (232-233)
