Structure of your answer is fine, some points can be improved. For e.g. in intro, you can add the concept of sustainability.
Points in the next part are good, you can give the example of status of legal person given to rivers reflecting their importance for sustaining communities based on the.
Further you can mention about environmental ethics being global in nature; concept of intrinsic value;
role in critiquing consumerism and calling for a green lifestyle etc.
Examples mentioned are good.
Conclusion is fine, Gandhiji’s quote about need and greed can be used.
Keep practicing. 🙂
