Read the chapter on environmental ethics in the text and select one of the key environmental concerns for humans that were outlined: global warming, ozone depletion, waste disposal and pollution, wilderness preservation, or international environmental conventions.
Respond to the following questions about the concern that you selected:
Why is the environmental concern that you selected important to you? Provide a rationale to support your opinion. Did you approach it from an anthropocentric or ecocentric viewpoint and why? What are the intrinsic or instrumental values that you considered?
Why is your environmental concern important to society? Provide at least one source with a citation (other than your textbook) to illustrate this importance.
