Environmental Ethic of Local Regions
In this reading assignment, the authors link Norway to an environmental ethic that they label "deep ecology." Utilizing the same type of analysis, summarize the environmental ethic that your region (this can be city, county, or state) exemplifies. You do not need to label your region's ethic with a particular term, but you must describe the ethic of that region. You might use words such as deep ecology, conservation, preservation, exploitation, dominate, harmony, to define the ethic. The following paper should utilize at least four scholarly resources to address each of the topic listed below:
a. Summarize the general environmental ethic of your region.
b. Do you agree with this ethic or do you believe that it should change.
c. How can citizens, governmental agencies, private corporations, etc. change this environmental ethic?
