At least one of these will be a government body, and another a charitable organisation.

    Just as specific goals should be mentioned by the initiative so does the risk and scientific approach to calculating risk and making criteria. Their website mentions the use of scientific information to access criteria but did not outline what the procedures informed. The initiative should provide ecological assessment data should be provided for specific locations. Since geography and climate influence the use of pesticides, a one size fit all approach is not enough to support the policy. The rule for the north and south cannot be the same because of the difference in challenges. If the policy fails to recognize this difference and adjust the policy to meet forest manager situation, then there is a recognition injustice.…

    Quite often, environmental issues are discussed in terms of economic, political and/or social implications. Ethical issues, fundamental to the topic, are usually ignored. Failure to consider these issues is often understandable when the nature of pragmatic politics and economics is understood. Ethical positions are most often phrased as questions asking how we, as humans, relate to other humans individually, to other humans as groups, to other humans still to be born, to other forms of life and/or to entire sets ranging from ecosystems to the entire planet. Questions as to humans’ relations with nature are often raised as well as the relationship between technology and progress – for example, are gains from technological innovations mainly accrued by the wealthy and often at the expense of poor or dispossessed peoples? To what extent do technological innovations generate serious social and ecological problems? Is progress in meeting human needs always at the expense of nature? Is the biotechnology revolution in agriculture in the best interest of both humanity and nature? Questions such as these will be dealt with as our course proceeds during the semester.…
