what is ethics ??

Use this thread to summarize one ethical position that you anticipate that will be useful for our course.

After our last divisive presidential election, I am not going to wade into the Immigration, Gun Control, Supreme Court Appointment (Abortion), Affordable Care Act, Black Lives Matter, and Transgender Bathrooms abyss, but I am going to dive head first into the Global Warming, Fossil Fuel, Renewable Energy, Fracking, and Keystone XL Pipeline pool, since the current administration accepts scientific consensus on climate change whereas the president-elect is either a doubter or denier of climate change, I feel there is going to be some ethical issues on how fossil fuels are framed and if the worst case scenario comes to fruition what the lasting effects in term of years for its reversal will be.
