Study of the Environmental Ethical Responsibilities of Engineers

With the evolution of the times and the rapid development of science and technology, our living environment has undergone great changes, and these changes are inseparable from our engineering activities. While the development of modern engineering activities brings us convenience, it also brings many uncertainties to the current natural and social environment. Among them, engineers, as the most important part of engineering activities, have a more direct impact on the environment. This paper describes the current situation faced by engineers and the challenges of environmental ethics to engineers by investigating relevant background information. Immediately after that, it analyzes in depth the ways for engineers to realize their environmental ethical responsibilities and the significance of their formation, so that they can balance engineering activities and the environment and try to find the optimal solution.
