I find that there is nothing better than a good book that examines human's relations to the environment. There are so many great ways that authors have taken up the challenge of answering the question: what do humans mean to the environment? Some are personal, some scientific, all are relevant to defining our position and our impact. Here are a couple I have greatly enjoyed:
*The World Without Us by Alan Weisman
*The Power of Unreasonable People: How Social Entrepreneurs Create Markets That Change the World by
by John Elkington, Pamela Hartigan, Klaus Schwab
*Plenty by Alisa Smith and J.B. Mackinnon
*Beyond Growth by Herman Daly
*Animal, Vegetable, Miracle by Barbara Kingsolver
*Ecology of Commerce by Paul Hawken

choose specific topic
hi
environment is not just simply a word which can be eaisily defined.
when u talk about Environment, u actually open a portal which leads u to endless discussion.
you didnt mention that what are you reading about environment?
environment is actually the main heading u mensioned. it has endless branches!!!!
i therefore, recommend u to choose a specific sub-topic then go deeply into it!
yours sincerly
greenary lover friend

By green reading I was referring books that discuss being environmentally conscious, aka, environmental books.

now i dont think so that there will be any problum for u now to study the relationship b/w environment and sustainability.
but in this u will find further catagories.
scientifically or socially!
now eaisily choose any one of these and start studying
