Environmental movements are an important part of the political and social spectrum today. The main principles developed by these movements are applied in politics, education, science nowadays. All we know about these principles. All we have encountered the conception that we need to keep nature clean, to protect the environment, etc. There is Paris agreement that aims at reducing greenhouse gases in the near future. There are other agreements demanding the elimination of fossil fuels. All the time we are listening about global warming, climate change, human impact on climate. We are informed that we will face natural disasters brought about by global warming; that all floods, storms, hurricanes in the near future will be caused by global warming. There is even a fashionable movement that we could refer to as "green." Everything "green" is good, nice, to be preferred. There are "green airlines," "green vehicles," "green factories," and so forth. This is what we hear and read, but is it true? This book aims at analyzing environmental ("green") movements in a philosophical aspect. The work distinguishes between the political, scientific, and philosophical dimensions of these movements. It demonstrates that here we can find a certain agenda elaborated and supported by liberal circles. Despite that green movements do not have any connection to liberalism, they are backed by liberals today. Here we will attempt to answer the question of what is the relationship between environmental movements, liberalism, and socialism.
