Environmental Ethics......:)

Environmental ethics is the part of environmental philosophy which considers extending the traditional boundaries of ethics from solely including humans to including the non-human world and eventually it exerts influence on a large range of disciplines including law, sociology, theology, economics, ecology and geography.

There are many ethical decisions that human beings make with respect to the environment. For instance:

--Should we continue to clear cut forests for the sake of human consumption?
--Should we continue to propagate?
--Should we continue to make gasoline powered vehicles?
--What environmental obligations do we need to keep for future generations?
--Is it right for humans to knowingly cause the extinction of a species for the convenience of humanity?

CHOICE IS URS:)
