What are EthicalPrinciples? • Ethical principles are guidelines based on morality than determinethe lengths or boundaries a person or business sets for itself. • For example, a person who wants to get rich at any cost will tend to have low ethics; whereas, a person who confirms that there are some things he or she is not willing to do to become rich will tend to have higher ethics.

Types of Environmental Problems • Human progression has brought many environmental problems along with it. Due to greater numbers of human beings on the planet, the level of environmental danger has risen significantly. There are countless environmental problems in today's world, but a few are more prominent than others. • Read more: Types of Environmental Problems | eHow.com http://www.ehow.com/about_5365664_types-environmental-problems.html#ixzz2MB0kBLzv
http://www.ehow.com/about_5365664_types-environmental-problems.htmlhttp://www.ehow.com/about_5365664_types-environmental-problems.html • Smog • Smog is a dangerous air pollution that damages Earth's ozone layer. Smog is pervasive in urban areas, and places where there are a lot of motor vehicles. Smog is created by vehicle emissions, factories and aerosol products. It makes the air dirty, and has been linked to people developing allergies and respiratory problems. • Litter • Litter is garbage that has not been put in its place. It turns beautiful landscapes ugly, and some types of litter are dangerous to wildlife. Stray plastic bags, six-pack holders and aluminum cans are not only unappealing to the eye, they can cause animals to choke or injure themselves.
Types of Environmental Problems • Water Pollution • If waste leaks into a water system, it could have dangerous effects on the things that live in the water or consume it. This will not only damage the cleanliness of the water, but will often make the water smell bad too. The most common causes of water pollution are sewage treatment plants, factories, underground mines, agriculture and oil spills • Deforestation • When humans cut down natural forests, it greatly disturbs the habitats of any animals that lived in that forest. In some cases, deforestation has resulted in the extinction of certain species. Deforestation results in an enhanced greenhouse effect, which causes severe damage to Earth's atmosphere. There is also a decline in biodiversity because of deforestation.
Types of Environmental Problems • Global Warming • This is a popular environmental problem, especially in politics. Former United States Vice President Al Gore's film, "An Inconvenient Truth," was about the dangers of global warming. There has been much debate over the severity of global warming, but environmentalists are persistent about its dangers. Environmentalists state that ocean levels will rise as polar ice caps melt, further crowding an already crowded planet. • Read more: Types of Environmental Problems | eHow.comhttp://www.ehow.com/about_5365664_types-environmental-problems.html#ixzz2MB1u0p6l

MEDICAL ETHICS • Medical ethics is a system of moral principles that apply values and judgments to the practice of medicine. As a scholarly discipline, medical ethics encompasses its practical application in clinical settings as well as work on its history, philosophy, theology, and sociology.
Values in medical ethics • Values in medical ethics • A common framework used in the analysis of medical ethics is the "four principles" approach postulated by Tom Beauchamp and James Childress in their textbook Principles of biomedical ethics. It recognizes four basic moral principles, which are to be judged and weighed against each other, with attention given to the scope of their application. The four principles are:[6] • Respect for autonomy - the patient has the right to refuse or choose their treatment. (Voluntasaegrotisupremalex.) • Beneficence - a practitioner should act in the best interest of the patient. (Salusaegrotisupremalex.) • Non-maleficence - "first, do no harm" (primum non nocere). • Justice - concerns the distribution of scarce health resources, and the decision of who gets what treatment (fairness and equality). • Other values which are sometimes discussed include: • Respect for persons - the patient (and the person treating the patient) have the right to be treated with dignity. • Truthfulness and honesty - the concept of informed consent has increased in importance since the historical events of the Doctors' Trial of the Nuremberg trials and Tuskegee syphilis experiment. • Values such as these do not give answers as to how to handle a particular situation, but provide a useful framework for understanding conflicts.
INDUSTRIAL PROGRESS IN COMMUNICATIONS, TRANSPORT AND IN LIFEDAILYScience and technology have made remarkable advances that are seen in progressindustrial, communications, transportation, in everyday life and in the evolution ofnations.In industry, creating new materials, such as plastics, which are in the formmore convenient and economical to traditional raw materials of the time.Technological upgrading today allows plant constructionhydroelectric and nuclear agilitan promoting and industrial activity.In metallurgy through science and technology have created new alloys that enablegreater ease and safety in construction and transportation, aviation, and in particular themachines for space travel, have been particularly favored their employment.Human communications are facilitating and improving amazingly come. thetelegraph, the telephone, the phonograph were the greatest inventions of the nineteenth century, asauditory information transmitters. Currently, radio, television, videophone,teletypes, artificial satellites, put people in contact, in some casessimultaneously, with all world events.

Medical Ethics- Bioethics • http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bioethics#Medical_ethics
Euthanasia (from the Greek: εὐθανασία meaning "good death": εὖ, eu (well or good) + θάνατος, thanatos (death)) refers to the practice of intentionally ending a life in order to relieve pain and suffering. • There are different euthanasia laws in each country. The British House of LordsSelect Committee on Medical Ethics defines euthanasia as "a deliberate intervention undertaken with the express intention of ending a life, to relieve intractable suffering".[1] In the Netherlands, euthanasia is understood as "termination of life by a doctor at the request of a patient".[2] • Euthanasia is categorized in different ways, which include voluntary, non-voluntary, or involuntary. Voluntary euthanasia is legal in some countries and U.S. states. Non-voluntary euthanasia is illegal in all countries. Involuntary euthanasia is usually considered murder.[3] • As of 2006, euthanasia is the most active area of research in contemporary bioethics.[4]
