   Extractions: JUN Environmental ethics is the discipline that studies the moral relationship of human beings to, and also the value and moral status of, the environment and its nonhuman contents. This entry covers: (1) the challenge of environmental ethics to the anthropocentrism (i.e., human-centeredness) embedded in traditional western ethical thinking; (2) the early development of the discipline in the 1960s and 1970s; (3) the connection of deep ecology, feminist environmental ethics, and social ecology to politics; (4) the attempt to apply traditional ethical theories, including consequentialism, deontology, and virtue ethics, to support contemporary environmental concerns; and (5) the focus of environmental literature on wilderness, and possible future developments of the discipline. 1.

When the Center for the Study of Values in Public Life was subsequently created at the Divinity School, the became one of its three program areas of concentration, with continuous support from the Harvard-wide University Committee on Environment (UCE) . The program focused on several distinct activities including a faculty seminar (the Harvard Seminar on Environmental Values ), the publication of an Occasional Papers Series and the presentation of the Subject Bibliographies in Environmental Ethics . In addition, it drew attention of students and faculty to courses offered in the Divinity School and in other schools of the Boston Theological Institute (BTI) that related to environmental ethics and public policy. Over the years of its existence, the program served as the principal liaison between university-wide initiatives on the environment of the UCE and the members of the faculty and students at the Divinity School.

8. Martin Heidegger And Environmental Ethics
   Online scholarly paper by Tad Beckman.  
   http://www2.hmc.edu/~tbeckman/personal/Heidart.html
   
   Extractions: MARTIN HEIDEGGER AND ENVIRONMENTAL ETHICS After World War II, Martin Heidegger directed much of his thinking to technology and to the impact of technology on our perceptions of human life. One of the essays developed along this path was "The Question Concerning Technology." It is unfortunate that the essay is not widely read because it carries the critique of technology out of its usual context and form and delivers it into a new light where there is, perhaps, some progress to be made. Furthermore, the essay has special significance to environmental issues and, I believe, lays a new groundwork for an ethical approach to our relations with the environment. The tension in this essay comes into sharp focus, at the end, in Heidegger's preposterous suggestion that art may be what we need to carry us out of the dangerous epoch of technology. I say that this is "preposterous" on two grounds. First, our society thinks of technology as its distinctive talent and strength, not as a disaster. Second, our society sees art as frivolous and impotent in the "real world" of capitalistically generated technology. Heidegger himself recognized this irony and devoted the major portion of the essay to a careful analysis of the dangers that befall us in technology. His suggestion regarding art came late and remained poorly explicated. My intention, in this essay, is to interpret Heidegger's thesis about technology and art in the context of forming an ethical approach to the environment. What we shall discover along this path is that human nature, technology, and art are all intertwined in complex ways. At present, these relationships stand in great confusion and this confusion is part of the danger of our time. But this confusion can be grasped and dispensed with by thinking our way into the essence of our technological epoch. We may also ask, What is the essence of art that it might bear some relation to this epoch? And finally, What is our essence as human beings in relation to technology, art, and our natural environment?

    Extractions: Aims and Scope: Ethics, Place and Environment is an international peer-reviewed journal publishing research, scholarship and debate on all aspects of geographical and environmental ethics. The journal's title provides an indication of its focus on all aspects of geographical and environmental ethics. The use of the word 'place' highlights geographers' concerns with the interaction between peoples and environments that creates particular places. 'Environment' is used in a very broad sense to emphasise not only physical and biological environments, but also social and cultural environments. Geographers working on ethical issues have been concerned with a wide range of subjects, from animal rights, to questions of justice in urban society, development ethics, cartography, and the construction of cultural values.

Tanz The Postmodern Forest: Images Differing by Dr. Steven Taubeneck Sustainable Development: What Do We Owe to Future Generations? by Dr. Thomas Hurka INTRODUCTION The conference was organized around the idea that sustainable development and competition are in some sense competing visions of our global future. Nowhere is this potential conflict more salient than in the forestry industry. Canada, and B.C. in par ticular, shares with Germany a concern for the fate of forests and for the industries based on forest resources. This conference sought to bring together academics from both Canadian and German universities to explore the ethical challenges associated with these competing visions. Those attending the conference had the opportunity to hear talks from a wide variety of specialties, ranging from botany to cultural studies to philosophy. Of the talks given, four were developed into papers to be included in this publication. Special thanks go to Dr. Schutt for making his speaking notes available for this purpose.
