We are blessed to have a place to live where we can use natural resources , see the

beauty of nature and enjoy staying in our very own mother nature. Environment is the
foundation and support of human existence and survival and the guarantee of sustainable
human development; environmental protection has undoubtedly become a common
understanding and development strategy of all countries of the world. Now humankind is
striving into the historical process of postindustrial society and is trying to reach rebalance with
environment in later stage of development. On the other hand, is our nature deserve all the
action we have done ? What can you conclude about our current environmental crisis and
pollution ? Look at our country or the world rather, the contamination of our environment by
the pullotant is environmental pollution . The current state of the earth that we are seeing is
the cause of centuries exploitation of earth and it's resources. We just do whatever we think is
good for ourselves and we are being selfish . Everyone should think ethically and remember our
mother nature by avoiding pollution and environmental crisis and making a step to solve this
issues. The current situation really shows the action we have done and by this everybody is
affected , so we should help each other for a better world , a better and safe home for each
and everyone of us.

The happenings in our country recently is very alarming and we people are the reason
behind those tragics. I choose this issue because I have witness how Typhon Paeng distroyed
Philippines that causes death of some people. I have realized and known some of the those
causes. People are really irresponsible, we didn't think about the outcomes of our actions. As a
result, serious new environmental problems have emerged on a global scale. These problems
include global climate change; worldwide loss of biodiversity, forests, and wetlands; long-range
transport of toxic substances; decline of coastal ocean quality; and degradation of the world’s
freshwater and ecological systems. Also, a simple throwing of garbage everywhere may result
to a massive flood , cutting of trees equals to landslide and many other human unethical
behavior. When we choose to do what is right in most of the time maybe the earth is still
beautiful as it was at the beginning.

The manufacturing, housing, agriculture, meat production, and energy consumption are also
some of the causes of pollutions and environmental issues. Some of the main ethical topics
include pollution; the threat of plant, animal and human extinction; global warming;
deforestation; and animal rights. An example of environmental ethics would be a governmental
program that subsidizes buying meat directly from local farmers to help combat factory
farming. It is an important component of business studies because companies that provide
goods and services are responsible for protecting our natural resources.
The technical power that humans now have to affect adversely people they will never meet is a
challenge for such ethical systems. Still, global environmental problems raise very serious
ethical issues. For example, a global climate change will hurt the poorest on the planet,
seriously reduce the quality of life for future generations, and threaten plants and animals
around the world. Is this right or just, particularly if those who are most harmed are least
responsible for the problem? Let's practice ourselves to be considerate about our surroundings
because our actions is our worst enemy.

Environmental ethics, along with human values, make for challenging philosophical
debates about man's interaction with the environment. Water and air pollution, the depletion
of natural resources, loss of biodiversity, destruction of ecosystems, and global climate change
are all part of the environmental ethics debate. And we see that within the discipline of
environmental ethics there are tough ethical decisions humans must consider.For example, is it
acceptable for poor farmers in undeveloped countries to cut down forest to make room for
farmland, even if this action harms the environment? Is it morally wrong for humans to
continue to burn fossil fuels knowing that this action leads to air pollution and global climate
changes? Let's try to think in everything we do because pollution affects all living things, it is our
moral obligation to take care of it to the best of our ability. If we do not, we are impacting not
only the current generation, but future generations as well. If we knowingly mistreat the
environment, we are not acting in a moral manner.

Last:

Real situations like those stated above, play out daily and spark healthy debate around these
important issues. These more nuanced and difficult situations require environmental ethics to
decide the best path forward, not only for the humans currently living on the planet, but those
that will be born in generations to come. Human values greatly shape how we treat our
environment. Solving the issues regarding pollution and crisis are imperative to the survival of
humanity because without thinking or making right decission in using both renewable and non-
renewable resources . The world inherit by future generations will not be inheritable . Without
environmental ethics , the planet will not be inheritable for human life.
