Enviornmental_Ethics

Enviornmental Ethics philosophy Let me start off by saying that these subjects, environmental ethics, radical ecology, and the many chapters and schools of thought that fall beneath them are very new to me. I will not use this as an excuse for writing a poor paper; instead I will use it as inspiration to explore the basic schools of thought and the differences between them. At the beginning of this term I was asked to look at egocentric ethics, homocentric ethics, and ecocentric ethics. These are three different ways of thinking that seem to cover almost any group of people on our planet. I was asked to look at these three options, evaluate them, and then mark the chalk board where my opinions led me; I had a lot of trouble deciding what my opinions were. I had honestly never really thought that much about what was going on with our resources and what is left of our planets natural habitats. I always just assumed that there were people out there that had the answers and it would all be ok. Now I realize that there are many problems people, ethics, good, ethic, one, egocentric, very, thought, just, because, believe, am, way, things, problems, much, mark, make, life, ecocentric, century, about, should, seem, resources, overcome, never, merchant, major, human, homocentric, helping, hardin, world, water
