Ecoethics in the Perú. Citizen participation in the care and protection of the environment

Abstract

“Ecoethics", also known as environmental ethics, is a discipline that seeks to incorporate moral principles, values, conduct norms, and decisions into the daily lives of individuals. These elements should bring forth a harmonious relationship with the environment. This relationship will be inspired in the search of social justice for all, and it will not discriminate between ideology, race, sex, religion, or nationality. To achieve this, the research hereby presented will consider the relevance of ecoethics as an integral part of the human being in that for every decision that he makes, he will have to consider any possible effects on the environment. This way the message will be delivered to every human being, as a responsible citizen, that it doesn't matter how insignificant a failed outcome - it is enough to generate an adequate behavior and the environmental conscience in the process of critical decision-making.
