Global environmental concerns are fundamental to the human condition and consequently to the social work profession. These complex issues require “big thinking.” In this article, we use virtue theory and two major social work contributions in order to grapple with understanding and addressing environmental justice. Key virtues of compassion, solidarity, and justice in social work are especially effective as an underpinning of social work interventions at community and policy levels. To further develop this work, the article focuses on: (i) identifying environmental justice as a social work concern; (ii) describing the virtues and ethical frame of compassion, solidarity, and justice; (iii) applying this frame using the Grand Challenge of the changing environment and the Global Agenda For Social Work And Social Development report; and (iv) identifying the role of religious partners in this work. To effectively engage in environmental justice, social work requires broad conceptual thinking, strong ethical frames, and enhanced cooperative networks.

解决环境正义:美德伦理、社会工作和社会福利

全球环境问题是人类状况的基础,因此也是社会工作专业的基础。这些复杂的问题需要“大思路”。在本文中,我们使用美德理论和两项主要的社会工作贡献来理解和解决环境正义。社会工作中同情、团结和正义的主要美德作为社区和政策层面社会工作干预的基础特别有效。为了进一步开展这项工作,本文重点关注:(i) 将环境正义确定为社会工作关注点;(ii) 描述同情、团结和正义的美德和伦理框架;(iii) 使用不断变化的环境的大挑战和全球社会工作和社会发展议程报告来应用这一框架;(iv) 确定宗教伙伴在这项工作中的作用。为了有效地参与环境正义,社会工作需要广泛的概念思维、强大的伦理框架和加强的合作网络。
