Abstract(s)
É reconhecida a necessidade de se integrarem as práticas ambientais em reflexões de natureza ética. Uma vez que as ações desprovidas de fundamentação rapidamente se transformam em re-ações vazias e sem sentido, torna-se essencial aliar o "como devo agir?" ao "porquê devo agir (desta forma e não de outra)"? O que a Ética Ambiental procura é dotar os seres humanos das ferramentas que lhes permitam assumir essa intencionalidade de um agir responsável e consciencioso, promovendo um imprescindível olhar crítico sobre os contextos em que nos inserimos.
ABSTRACT: The need to integrate environmental practices in ethical reflections is well acknowledged. Since unsubstantiated actions quickly become meaningless, empty re-actions, is it essential to combine two important questions: 'how should I act?' with 'why should I act (this way and not otherwise)'? What Environmental Ethics aims at is giving human beings the tools that enable them to take on the intentionality of a responsible and conscientious way of acting, promoting an indispensable critical outlook on the contexts in which we act.
