1. Environmental Ethics and Sustainability

Environmental ethics deals with ethical issues that do not concern human nature, and human interventions in nature. The topic is very broad and refers in the context of sustainability considerations for example also to the permanent human survival on earth and issues such as intergenerational equity. Despite its diversity, sustainability is always still in the stage of development. This can be seen in the differentiation of its contents, and also in the development of the concept of sustainability itself.
