    Extractions: Environmental Ethics Ethics is a branch of philosophy that primarily discusses issues dealing with human behavior and character. Ethics attempts to establish a basis for judging right from wrong and good from bad. Environmental ethics employs concepts from the entire field of philosophy, especially aesthetics, metaphysics, epistemology, philosophy of science, and social and political philosophy. Aesthetics deals with perceptions of physical properties such as color, sound, smell, texture, and taste. Since environmental ethics is often involved with issues dealing with the protection of plants and animals, its appeal is often to aesthetic experiences of nature. Environmental ethics is also interconnected with political and social structures concerning the use of natural resources, so the field also touches the areas of social and political philosophy. In the struggle to conserve the environment, environmental ethicists also use the knowledge and theories of science, for example, in issues such as those dealing with global warming and air pollution. The modern environmental movement in North America grew out of earlier conservation efforts. Among the best-known early proponents of the conservation of natural resources, such as forests and waterways, is President Theodore Roosevelt. Others who helped shaped early issues in environmental ethics were Thomas Malthus, David Ricardo, John Stuart Mill, Gifford Pinchot, Ralph Waldo Emerson, and John Muir. More recently, the writings of Rachel Carson in the 1950s and 1960s marked the beginning of the modern environmental movement and the ideas that gave it energy.

MacDonald Series Editors: Michael McDonald Peter Danielson This document can be found at: http://www.ethics.ubc.ca/papers/susdev.html KEYWORDS: sustainable development, environmental ethics, forestry, resources Introduction Contributors Sustainability of Forests: An Attempt at a Biological Interpretation by Professor Dr. Peter Schutt Sustainable Development, Sustainable Yield Forestry, and the Meaning of Life by Jordan S. Tanz The Postmodern Forest: Images Differing by Dr. Steven Taubeneck Sustainable Development: What Do We Owe to Future Generations? by Dr. Thomas Hurka INTRODUCTION The conference was organized around the idea that sustainable development and competition are in some sense competing visions of our global future. Nowhere is this potential conflict more salient than in the forestry industry. Canada, and B.C. in par ticular, shares with Germany a concern for the fate of forests and for the industries based on forest resources. This conference sought to bring together academics from both Canadian and German universities to explore the ethical challenges associated with these competing visions. Those attending the conference had the opportunity to hear talks from a wide variety of specialties, ranging from botany to cultural studies to philosophy. Of the talks given, four were developed into papers to be included in this publication. Special thanks go to Dr. Schutt for making his speaking notes available for this purpose.

It is easy to oversimplify the problems, and the solutions. When it comes to environmental issues, what are we responsible and accountable for as individuals? How are our responsibilites affected by the fact that we act in, create, and support institutions? What do we owe to ourselves, to each other, and perhaps to the biosphere itself?

Then they will travel (no quote marks this time!) to Kenya and elsewhere in East Africa to finish the course with a hands-on practicum in which abstract philosophical principles turn into concrete directives of life-and-death significance. In the process, they will discover for themselves why those who travel to Africa are never the same afterwards. The course is conducted by two philosophy faculty
