Formerly he was Henry R.

He is also past president of the International Society for Environmental Ethics.  

Dr. Jamieson is the author of Ethics and the Environment: An Introduction (Cambridge, 2008), and Morality's Progress: Essays on Humans, Other Animals, and the Rest of Nature (Oxford, 2002). He is also the editor or co-editor of seven books, most recently A Companion to Environmental Philosophy (Blackwell, 2001), and the forthcoming Climate Ethics (with Steve Gardiner, Simon Caney, and Henry Shue). He has published nearly one hundred articles and book chapters, and is also the co-author of a major report to the US Environmental Protection Agency, Cultural Barriers to Behavioral Change: General Recommendations and Resources for State Pollution Prevention Programs

He is on the editorial advisory boards of several journals including Environmental Values; Environmental Ethics; Science, Technology, and Human Values; Science and Engineering Ethics; Journal of Applied Animal Welfare Science; The Journal of Agricultural and Environmental Ethics; and the Journal of Applied Philosophy. His research has been funded by the National Science Foundation, the US Environmental Protection Agency, the National Endowment for the Humanities, and the Office of Global Programs in the National Atmospheric and Aeronautics Administration. He is currently writing a book on the moral and political challenges of climate change, a topic on which he has worked for more than twenty-five years.
