Question 2

What is legacy pollution? Choose one of the examples of poor environmental management from the text (beginning on p. 488). For your chosen example, discuss your thoughts on who should have exercised more responsible care in the situation. Would stricter regulation have helped in your example?

Question 2

Discuss the basic elements of a professional code of ethics. Compare these elements to the code of ethics for your employer or current profession. What elements would you add, and why? (If you do not currently have an employer, research a code for the profession or employer you wish to have. If your current employer/profession does not have a code of ethics, research one for a similar field or employer.)

Your response should be at least 200 words in length. You are required to use at least your textbook as source material for your response. You must also use one outside source. All sources used, including the textbook, must be referenced; paraphrased and quoted material must have accompanying citations.
