Philip.Sutton@green-innovations.asn.au Revised 19th September 1998 Version 1.a/wii Paper marked up in HTML format by Philip Sutton. Contents Who should we care about? Environmental justice Undiminished responsibility Holistic realism ... Practical idealism What are the ethical frameworks by which we should judge efforts to create an ecologically sustainable economy? Who should we care about? We should care for: people locally people globally future generations nature. Environmental justice Given the need to compensate for power inequalities in society, when conflicts arise between people or between humans and nature, the least powerful should be given consideration ahead of the most powerful. This should apply not only to the relationships between people but also between humans and other species. (see statements of the intrinsic value of nature In a world where there are resource scarcities (eg. water and oil) and excessive environmental damage due to the overuse of some resources, access to the means-of-not-needing-a-resource is often more important than access to or the right to exploit the physical resource itself. In a world where the poor substantially outnumber the rich and where the dynamics of the economy are more powerful than the statics, non-exploitative investment by the rich to help create sustainable and ample livelihoods for the poor is probably more critical than marginal redistribution of income. In a world enmeshed in multiple crises active engagement in problem solving is probably more critical than charitable sharing. And in a world where some people are massively wealthy while others are struggling, measures to improve the livelihood of the well off are definitely of lower priority than measures to improve the welfare of the least well off.

A number of Policies have already been produced by the WFEO Committee on Engineering and the Environment.(CEE) An important policy document was that agreed by the CEE in 1991, and submitted to the General Assembly at their meeting in Arusha, Tanzania. The endorsed document, known as the Arusha Declaration , was submitted to the UNCED Rio Conference. The WFEO Policy on the Environment, expressed through its Code of Environmental Ethics , is currently being reviewed. Comments invited by WFEO are re-posted here for information and for comment. WFEO to review Code of Environmental Ethics Professional ethics was discussed at the WFEO meetings in Budapest in October,1995. There are two ethical codes adopted by the WFEO: one is the Code of Environmental Ethics for Engineers drawn up by the Committee for Engineering and Environment (CEE) and adopted by the General Assembly in 1987: the other is the Model Code of Ethics , a more general document, approved by the WFEO General Assembly in 1993. The possibility of combining these two codes into one has been considered, and work is progressing on this. However, in the meantime it was agreed, as part of the WFEO Action Plan , that endeavours should continue to be made to have as many International and National Members as possible accede to the existing Codes, while, at the same time, the CEE should work on updating them. .

66. 20th WCP: Case-Based Environmental Ethics Philosophy and the Environment. CaseBased environmental ethics. I argue that pluralistic casuistry provides an adequate approach to environmental ethics. http://www.bu.edu/wcp/Papers/Envi/EnviWeir.htm

Philosophy and the Environment Case-Based Environmental Ethics Jack Weir Morehead State University j.weir@morehead-st.edu ABSTRACT: Cases have been widely used in medical ethics and law. In both fields, numerous books and articles about cases have appeared, including book-length catalogs of cases. I argue that pluralistic casuistry provides an adequate approach to environmental ethics. It retains the strengths while avoiding the weaknesses of the other approaches. Importantly, it resolves some broader theoretical issues and provides a clear, explicit methodology for education and praxis. Cases have been widely used in medical ethics and law. In both fields, numerous books and articles about cases have appeared, including book-length catalogs of cases. What I propose to do in this paper is to discuss whether environmental ethics should be case-based as in law and medicine. The relationship of cases to theory has received intense scholarly debate. At issue is which takes priority. A similar situation exists in the sciences, as well as in most other disciplines. There are the so-called "pure" or "research" scientists, and also the "applied" or "practical" scientist. Field biologists, conservation biologists, restoration ecologists, landscape engineers, sylvantologists, and so on, are applied scientists. Which takes priority: theory or application? What I want to discuss is whether environmental ethics, like medicine and law, would benefit from case-based methodology.

Environmental ethics From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Environmental ethics is the ethical realtionship between human beings and the environment in which we live. There are many ethical decisions that human beings make with respect to the environment. For example, should we continue to decimate the forests for the sake of human consumption? Should we continue to make gas-guzzling SUV's (sports utility vehicles), depleting fossil fuel resources while we already have the technology to create zero-emission vehicles? What environmental obligations do we need to keep for future generations? edit See also Environmentalism Environment Ethics Categories ...

ASLA Code of Environmental Ethics Preamble Members of the American Society of Landscape Architects should make every effort within our sphere of influence to enhance, respect, and restore the life sustaining integrity of the landscape for all living things. Members should work with clients, review and approval agencies, and local, regional, national, and global governing authorities to educate about, encourage, and seek approval of environmentally positive, financially sound, and sustainable solutions to land-use development and management opportunities. The following tenets are the basis of the ASLA Code of Environmental Ethics: The health and well-being of biological systems and their integrity are essential to sustain human well-being. Future generations have a right to the same environmental assets and ecological aesthetics. Long-term economic survival has a dependence upon the natural environment. Environmental stewardship is essential to maintain a healthy environment and a quality of life for the earth.

Paper title: Feminism And Environmental Ethics: A Materialist Perspective Theme: Feminism and Environmental Ethics Author: Prof. Mary Mellor University of Northumbria at Newcastle, United Kingdom Email address: m.mellor@unn.ac.uk MARY MELLOR, UNIVERSITY OF NORTHUMBRIA AT NEWCASTLE, UK FEMINISM AND ENVIRONMENTAL ETHICS: A MATERIALIST PERSPECTIVE There is a long-standing claim within feminist literature that women speak with a 'different voice' (Gilligan 1982), that it is both possible and desirable to have an ethics from the standpoint of women (Noddings 1990), that the standpoint of women is a better starting point for adequate knowledge of the world (Harding 1993). This claim is central to ecofeminist politics, that women have a particular perspective on the relationship between humanity and nature and have a moral/political calling to reweave the world (Diamond and Orenstein 1990) or heal the wounds of an ecologically destructive social order (Plant 1989). In this paper I will not be making the claim that women per se have a superior vision or a higher moral authority but that an ethics that does not take account of the gendered nature of society is doomed to failure as it will confront neither the material structure of human society or the way in which that structure impacts on the materiality of the relationship between humanity and nature.

Home Contact Us Faculty Philosophy ... Academic Honors Environmental Ethics In 1971 the very first course in the world in Environmental Ethics was offered right here at UW-SP. As the world was waking up to the environmental problems that we were being forced to face, ethically inclined and environmentally aware philosophers began to envision and embrace a confluence of their academic interest with their environmental concern. Since those humble beginnings, environmental ethics has (click any image to enlarge) grown into not only a burgeoning academic discipline but also a field much respected in other academic disciplines and non-academic environmental circles alike. And it all began here at UW-SP. We have designed this program to complement nearly any course of study at UW-SP, especially programs in the College of Natural Resources. Moreover, our program is unique and cutting-edge. No other school in the state, nor as far as we are aware, in the country has such an undergraduate program.

Catalog Press Room E-newsletters Sign Up Archives ... Timeline Environmental Ethics Ethics is a branch of philosophy that primarily discusses issues dealing with human behavior and character. Ethics attempts to establish a basis for judging right from wrong and good from bad. Environmental ethics employs concepts from the entire field of philosophy, especially aesthetics, metaphysics, epistemology, philosophy of science, and social and political philosophy. Aesthetics deals with perceptions of physical properties such as color, sound, smell, texture, and taste. Since environmental ethics is often involved with issues dealing with the protection of plants and animals, its appeal is often to aesthetic experiences of nature. Environmental ethics is also interconnected with political and social structures concerning the use of natural resources, so the field also touches the areas of social and political philosophy. In the struggle to conserve the environment, environmental ethicists also use the knowledge and theories of science, for example, in issues such as those dealing with global warming and air pollution. The modern environmental movement in North America grew out of earlier conservation efforts. Among the best-known early proponents of the conservation of natural resources, such as forests and waterways, is President Theodore Roosevelt. Others who helped shaped early issues in environmental ethics were Thomas Malthus, David Ricardo, John Stuart Mill, Gifford Pinchot, Ralph Waldo Emerson, and John Muir. More recently, the writings of Rachel Carson in the 1950s and 1960s marked the beginning of the modern environmental movement and the ideas that gave it energy.

Free Summary of Paper #49753 BUY THIS PAPER LOOK FOR MORE RESEARCH PAPERS, ESSAYS AND BOOK REPORTS The Metaphysics of Environmental Ethics This paper is an essay on the metaphysics of environmental ethics based on J. Sterba's "Earth Ethics". Paper #: # of words: # of sources: Format: APA Author: Peter Pen Abstract This paper discusses the differences between moral and legal rights: Legal rights are created by conventional authorities; but moral rights are non-conventional as they are discovered, not created. The author defines specieism as putting the interest of your own species in front of the interest of other species and claims specieism is unjust because we must treat every being the same way. The paper concludes that all of these metaphysics may seem to be a lot of talk and no action; however, from talk comes awareness ideas and sharing them with members of the community is the only way that we can make real changes, as to benefit our environmental policy. From The Paper "In natural extinctions, nature takes away life when it has become unfit as Darwin would put it, or when the habitat alters, and supplies other life in its place. When artificial extinction takes place, it shuts down tomorrow because it shuts down speciation. The chief cause of artificial extinction of recent times is humans through encroachment, habitat destruction as well as many other factors caused by humans and when this happens nothing gets replaced. When natural extinction occurs, a species may be lost but this should not be viewed as a bad things because the species that is lost is replaced by another species."
