As a result, the environment is facing complete destruction. Each member has an important role in the environment, they form a beautiful environment in harmony with each other. But human oppression destroyed and affected the other species of the environment. That's why the environment stand at the crucial point of the destruction today. Now we feel the urgency of analyzing it, when the environmental crises, like the exhaustion of natural resources and greenery, climate catastrophe, animal killings etc. are at doorstep. Human civilization has achieved significant progress in scientific, technological, industrial and economic fields, but all developments in these fields have been pursued, and are being pursued, at the high cost of exploitation and exhaustion of environment. Man cannot survive as a completely separate entity from the environment. Because the members of the environment are interdependent in relation to each other. So the environment must be protected. We have to protect other members of the environment as well as animals and to create a healthy and beautiful environment. Human are the most intelligent being of this world, who are capable of moral conduct. So they have responsibility to protect all members of the environment. We should overcome the narrowness of anthropocentric morality and to extend the circle of moral considerations to the ecocentic morality. The result will be a beautiful and healthy environment.

That is, we will try to find a way to extend the circle of moral consideration from human-centric to leaving beings, where all living beings to be given respect. Finally, I will try to find out a guideline of on creating a healthy and peaceful environment through human friendly behavior towards animals by eliminating aggression and violence in society and environment.

All development decision should be taken with consuming natural resources in a limited way and to make a healthy natural environment. The developments so far done and being done in the name of 'sustainable development' are all meant for meeting only the human interests, even at the crucial cost of non-human nature. The major parts of the environment are nonhuman nature, but this part is not taken in the name of sustainable development. Human fail to pay their responsibility to the nature. Every entity in the environment is interdependent and interrelated. They are a unit. This unit is a system; in this system if an entity is destroyed then whole system will be harmed. In this paper I will address the issues, which are obstacles for making sustainable development in true sense. In this context I will discuss sustainable development as well as environmental ...

Human life may end in various ways, sometimes he dies in an accident, dies naturally in old age, dies<br> in disease etc., but in today's society some sort of deaths are most complicated issues in moral philosophy. Life is invaluable. Man<br> loves his life, he wants to protect and prolong his life. Everyone has the right to make their own decisions. But there is controversy<br> over the morality of his decision to end his life. In this paper I will discuss the relation between morality and euthanasia. In this way I<br> will mention the meaning of suicide, assisted suicide and euthanasia. I will analysis euthanasia and its moral foundations, what ethical<br> issues arise in the case of euthanasia and how ethical issues can be minimized, finally I will try to find out which situation is<br> reasonable for Euthanasia.
