Environmental ethics believes in the ethical

relationship between human beings and the natural

environment. Human beings are a part of the society
and so are the other living beings. When we talk about
the philosophical principle that guides our life, we often
ignore the fact that even plants and animals are a part
of our lives. They are an integral part of the
environment and hence have a right to be considered a
part of the human life
There are many ethical decisions that
human beings make with respect to
the environment. For example:
i Should we continue to clear cut
forests for the sake of human
consumption?
i Should we continue to propagate?
i Should we continue to make
gasoline powered vehicles?
i What environmental obligations do
we need to keep for future
generations?
i Is it right for humans to knowingly
cause the extinction of a species for
the convenience of humanity?
