This book examines how the way we conceive of, or measure, the environment changes the way we interact with it. Thomas Smith posits that environmentalism and sustainable development have become increasingly post-political, characterised by abstraction, and quantification to an unprecedented extent. As such, the book argues that our ways of measuring both the environment such as through sustainability metrics like footprints and Payments for Ecosystem Services and society, through gross domestic product (GPD) and wellbeing measures, play a constitutive and problematic role in how we conceive of ourselves in the world. Subsequently as the quantified environmental approach drives a dualistic wedge between the human and non-human realms, in its final section the book puts forward recent developments in new materialism and feminist ethics of care as providing practical ways of re-founding sustainable development in a way that firmly acknowledges human-ecological relations. The book will be of interest to scholars and students in the fields of human geography, political ecology, and environmental sociology.
