Abstract

This article is supposed to explore the ethical dimensions of environmental sustainability during, with and post Covid’19. It is contended in the paper to focus on the ethical grounding for environmental sustainability with an effect of Covid’19 that changed the health on Earth planet suddenly and without notifications. The conception of nature suggests the belief of sustainability as a positive value in the society specially with the effect of Covid’19. In the case of nature as environment, nature becomes the natural habitat of man and is always supportive of human, animal and plant existence. The second issue that alarms the present paper relates to ethical sustainability of environment, which is based on the ethical commitments of average human beings if tolerable environmental shield is to occur for our survival on this planet. As such, environmental ethics is alarmed with the problem of accountable individual behavior with respect to sustainability of natural resources specially after Covid’19. The ethical issue at present is the recovery of nature or restoring the nature as an environment rather than as an ordinary entity.
