Bioethics and ecosustainability

Abstract

"A new dimensional axiom to perceive the ethics of human beings and our relationship with other biotic and abiotic components of the ecosystem has to be reconciled. An ethical vision towards the mode of action of human beings help us to find a synoptic resonance of this manipulator and spoiler of the natural equilibrium of the ecosystem. It is pertinent enough to visualize the facts which have asserted that the squandering of natural resources is not only inexpedient but morally wrong. Bioethics includes perception of limitations on freedom of human action. Human perceptions of the environment and attitudes towards it, have emerged as integral parts of human interactivity with the rest of the nature over a long history. Individual perceptions of the environment are configured naturally by several factors including tradition, personal observation and experience, education and non-informal information from variable resources. The acceptance of the oneness of humanity and the notion of the total world as one family will only be sustained by a unifying vision of a peaceful, prosperous world society. Without such global bioethics, people will not be able to become fully active and constructive components in the global development process."
