This unit explores
the relationship between environmental ethics and science and
religion issues. It considers some possible future consequences
of human space exploration into other life-forms and their environments.
It explores our reasons for doing investigative science using
living things, and compares ideas in Buddhism with living-systems
theory.
The unit raises many ethical questions
and pupils are encouraged to consider and develop their own ethical
values and empathic responses to differing ideas and viewpoints.
