The lecture will analyse the place of philosophy within the broader field of environmental humanities, and focus on the discussion of philosophical perspectives on the problems of energy, including current energy crisis and the perspectives of energy transition. Stressing on the intrinsic connection between society and nature, it will address the collision between economy and ecology and question the limits of sustainability in the situation when climate change, pollution and the loss of biodiversity affect different territories and communities.
