Since the 1970s, environmentalism has emerged as a recognizable sensibility in American Judaism. Although a few secular Jews — such as Robert Marshal, Murray Bookchin, and Barry Commoner — greatly contributed to the rise of environmentalism in the United States, Jewish environmentalism as a movement came into existence only in the 1970s, largely in response to the provocative essay, “The Historical Roots of Our Ecological Crisis,” of Lynn White Jr.
