Detailed explanation-1: -Environmental ethics asserts that other animals, plants, and the elements (such as water, soil or air) are morally significant, and that humans have responsibilities to act so that their needs are met too.

Detailed explanation-2: -Through environmental ethics, humans are considerate of not only themselves but also plants, animals, and every object in nature. With the moral grounds and values that environmental ethics provides, humans are responsibly using nature and not in a way that results in resource degradation and destruction.

Detailed explanation-3: -Deep Ecology asserts that nature, the environment, and ecosystems have intrinsic value, meaning that they are deserving of moral consideration and protection merely because they exist. They do not have value because they meet human needs, but because they are a part of the Earth.

Detailed explanation-4: -Environmental ethics, along with human values, make for challenging philosophical debates about man’s interaction with the environment. Water and air pollution, the depletion of natural resources, loss of biodiversity, destruction of ecosystems, and global climate change are all part of the environmental ethics debate.
