In this course students study the implications of human activities on environmental problems with the focus on the ethical and social issues. Since environmental problems - whether it be loss of biodiversity and ecosystem functions, climate change , food crisis or the degradation of our environment - are inherently linked to the continuing growth of the world population, we will have to find new solutions for the increasingly serious environmental problems we face. Students determine whether sustainable development can provide a way for our future conduct in our dealings with our environment . They learn about how these new developments can carry the moral debate with all stakeholders with a view on the possible impact of new developments in the long term .
