Environmental Ethics: Examining Your Connection to the Environment and Your Community profiles a diverse group of courageous Goldman Environmental Prize winners who have made it their duty to protect their local environments. Organized around foundational topics in environmental studies, Environmental Ethics examines both the facts and the ethical arguments surrounding resource management practices. The inspiring stories told in Environmental Ethics pose questions about how to weigh the needs of modern life with the reality of its impact on the natural world. Through engaging, real-life examples of ethical concepts in action, this program asks viewers to think more critically about the power each person has to make a difference in their own communities. A true testament to the "power of one," Environmental Ethics demonstrates the many ways that regular people can become environmental heroes. --- Environmental Ethics is shipped in a kit form which includes a vhs version of the program and a fully chaptered dvd. --- The link listed below takes you to a dedicated website that features a comprehensive set of additional support material. --- "A terrific, bargain-priced, single-volume series geared for high school students...this is highly recommended." -Video Librarian
