Week 3: Environmental Ethics

Assalamualaikum everyone to my another new blog and it is about Environmental Ethics.

Environmental ethics deals with issue related to the right of individuals that are fundamental to life and well being. This concerns not only the needs of each person today, but also those who will come after us. It will also deals with the rights of living creatures that inhabit our earth. Environment destruction is largely caused by the consumption of the rich. However, the worst sufferer are the poorer.

Environment ethics should be concerned about everyone. Man is making the destruction of the environment by being selfish and not thinking about the next generation and others. Now a days people are much denial for the responsibility for misusing the environment. I have learned in my class about this topic. Our honorable



Sir has mentioned the term in the class. This is called, ‘not in my backyard' problem. 

Moreover, Islam also does not allow and teach us to be a denial person. Islam has always taught us to be a responsible man and also warned us not to harm our environment and take care of it. It is our core responsibility to take care of our surroundings and government should be much careful about taking care of our environment. Thank you for reading my blog.
