Walden Pond, by Henry David Thoreau. I don't recall it being "environmentalist" so much, not in the modern sense, certainly. The philosophy is called American Transcendentalism, and it is one of pacifism and respect for all living things. Thoreau's philosophy of civil disobedience were widely influential on Ghandi and Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
