Extinction of species, desertification and pollution clearly reveals this reality. However, like all the other living species human being is a living creature too and needs a clean and sustainable environment to live. Environmental ethics which is related to moral relationship between people and their natural environment emerges as a key concept at this point. Antropo-centric perspective can be converted into eco-centeric one via environmental ethics and people's perspectives towards the environment and environmental values can be changed positively. Evironmental ethics education can show the direction to the works to be done in this regard. Particularly at the universities as important places in people's scientific and social development, young people taking both vocational and environmental ethics eduction will not be the source of environmental problems but part of the solution when they begin their professional career. In this theoretical study, the importance of environmental ethics education for the university students will be emphasized.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessGlobal Environmental ProblemsUniversity StudentsEnvironmental Ethics EducationConference Object36303633WOS:000366835103091N/A
