Using web based research, find an environmental-based ethical dilemma from the past five years online
Using web based research, find an environmental-based ethical
dilemma from the past five years online. (You can use a news story,
an internet article, a law case, or anything from a governmental
database for this assignment.) Then, using this story as a
foundation for your dilemma: Create a 2-4 paragraph "dilemma"
similar to the other dilemmas you have been solving throughout this
term. Solve the dilemma using Kant's ethics (Categorical
Imperative). Solve the dilemma using any other method we have
discussed to date (with which you agree.) State which resolution
(Kant's or the other one you chose) you prefer and why. (It is
possible that one or more of these dilemmas you write may become
future exam questions for this course, so keep that in mind while
you write the dilemma.) This assignment should be about two typed
pages, double-spaced. You MUST provide the source of the dilemma,
and thus this paper will require at least one "work cited." Use APA
format in citing the source, and let me know if you have questions
on how to do that. (If you have questions on how to set up the Work
Cited, please first visit this website and use the citation maker
to help you: Landmark Citation Machine.)
