1. FACTORS INFLUENCING ENVIRONMENTAL ETHICS

Environmental ethics are vital for student midwives at IMAP College. They must understand how
environmental factors affect maternal and infant health, such as the impact of pollution and toxins. This
knowledge is essential for holistic patient care. Moreover, environmental ethics guide ethical decisions.
Student midwives can advocate for eco-friendly healthcare practices, including responsible medical
waste disposal and promoting sustainability.

Furthermore, they can actively push for sustainability in their institutions, advocating for policies
that reduce environmental harm, like eliminating single-use plastics or adopting energy-efficient
healthcare facilities.

In conclusion, environmental ethics are practical considerations for student midwives, enabling
them to provide holistic care, make ethical decisions, and promote a sustainable healthcare system.

2. WRITE DOWN IN 3 PARAGRAPHS ALL ABOUT ENVIRONMENT,ECOLOGY, SUSTAINABLE

ENVIRONMENT,AND UNSUSTAINABLE ENVIRONMENT.

The environment provides essential resources like clean air, water, and sustenance, while also
influencing physical and mental well-being. Understanding the environment is vital as it underscores the
interconnectedness of all life forms and ecosystems.

Ecology informs us about the impact of human activities, climate change, and disturbances on these
systems, guiding conservation efforts and sustainable practices.

A sustainable environment signifies responsible resource usage that meets present needs without
compromising future generations. It involves resource conservation, biodiversity preservation, and
resilient ecosystems. In contrast, an unsustainable environment arises from practices that deplete
resources faster than they regenerate, endangering ecosystems and future well-being.

Conclusion for Student Midwives:

As student midwives, understanding the environment, ecology, and sustainability is paramount. It
highlights the links between environmental health and maternal and infant well-being.
