Environmental Ethics Of Research For Nanotechnology Applications

Nanotechnology is called "one of the twenty-first century high-techswordsman, and set off a shock the global technologicalrevolution. Nanotechnology for human unprecedented resolution reveals a visibleworld of atoms, molecules, the ultimate goal is to reconstruct directly to theatomic or molecular material, design and manufacture products with specialfeatures to meet the people want what you can get What a dream. Nanotechnologyis creating a new human environment, but also with any other technology,nanotechnology applications with double-sided. Appropriate use for the benefit ofmankind, and inappropriate use will become the devil of crimes against humanity,including the nature of all life forms. Is a blessing or a curse depends entirely onhuman thinking on nanotechnology.Therefore, in order to nanotechnology research-based, environment, ethicalissues may arise on the application of nanotechnology to make the system,a comprehensive analysis, and proposed environmental ethics of nanotechnologyconstrained game. A more detailed introduction to the ethical researchon nanotechnology applications in the first chapter. The second chapter on themeaning of nanotechnology development at home and abroad, as well as itspositive value has been described. Such as: the use of nanotechnology to enhanceeconomic development, reduce the energy consumption of production per unit ofproduct; to remove harmful substances in the sewage, and improve the livingenvironment of mankind. The third chapter on the application of nanotechnologyto the threat posed by the destruction of the natural environment and to naturallife. First described nanotechnology use that will bring high-temperature effects,increased soil erosion, and to change the PH value in the atmosphere to cause acidrain phenomenon. Then described the threat posed by the application ofnanotechnology to the life forms in nature, wanton emission Nano wastesuppression of plant root growth, so the lag of the evolution of animal populations,as well as some irreparable ecological damage, caused by the inter-generationalinjustice. These wastes damage to people’s health and life and living environment of future generations of intra-generational injustice. The fourth chapter analyzesthe nanotechnology breach of environmental ethics. First, nanotechnology is oneof humanity called the inter-times technology, ease of human use of severaltechnologies before the Industrial Revolution changed delusion to conquer nature,the results of a complete failure. And nano-technology allows us to understandnature from a more subtle level, it is difficult to control the flame of naturalre-ignited. Followed by the application of nanotechnology contrary to theprinciple of equality of the biosphere, to break the equality between human andnature of other life forms contract. And finally explores the relationship betweenthe application of nanotechnology and natural values, damage to the creativenature itself has pointed out that the application of nanotechnology. Chapter fromthe perspective of environmental ethics, ethics policies and legal regulations tostandardize the application of nanotechnology, nanotechnology developmenttoward the direction of human health.
