Air Pollution

Paper Summary:

The author of this paper feels that the controlling of air pollution is not only a health problem but also an ethical issue. The paper discusses that the best solution seems to be the development of alternative fuels and technologies, which are not as harmful to the air, such as the hybrids and electrical cars that are affordable for everyone. The paper states that fluorocarbons, which are no longer necessary, must be banned around the world to prevent the loss of the ozone layer.

From the Paper:

"Limiting the use of automobiles is one way to cut down harmful emissions that affect air quality but that seems like an entirely too stringent requirement for most Americans, who love their cars. The ethics of this are varied. Americans conceptually understand they need to stop driving as much to clean up the air, but they are unwilling to give up the convenience and prestige of their automobiles. The challenge is to design automobiles that will help air quality while still allowing Americans their beloved autos."
