It uses the case of the Ballona Wetlands Ecological Reserve in Los Angeles, whose future is hotly contested between different environmentalist groups, as a case study to illustrate the complex trade-offs that environmental decision-making currently confronts, and to suggest in what ways the invocation of multispecies justice changes the participants in the community of justice and the way in which their claims on humans' moral consideration should be weighed. %K Environmental justice %K Multispecies justice %K Biodiversity %K Urban nature %K Restoration %K Justicia medioambiental %K Justicia multiespecie %K Biodiversidad %K Naturaleza urbana %K RestauraciĆ³n %K Literatura %K Literature %K Medio ambiente %K Environmental science %~ Biblioteca Universidad de Alcala
