reject thescenario of maintaining the global status quo, what is our ethical responsibility? Do we sacrificeour standard of living and adopt lifestyles that use less energy? Do we replace current energyresources with ones that are renewable? Is it possible to do so and still consume the sameamount of energy? Or do we lead a global effort to develop political, technological, andeconomic strategies to ensure a more equitable energy distribution? Although these questionshave been addressed in a superficial manner, the faculty members would like to devote moretime in class exploring these issues, and they plan to invite guest speakers to talk aboutenvironmental ethics and social justice.

, there remain pocketsof practice and education in “sanitary engineering.” For example, the National EnvironmentalHealth Association (NEHA), founded in 1937, exists, “To advance the environmental healthprofession for the purpose of providing a healthful environment for all,” [10], and the AmericanAcademy of Sanitarians (AAS), founded in 1966, exists to, “elevate the standards, improve thepractice, advance professional proficiency, and promote the highest levels of ethical conductamong professional sanitarians in every field of environmental health” [11].In 1998, the final report of the National Science Foundation (NSF)-sponsored meeting,“Research Frontiers in Environmental Engineering,” raised an important question, namely,“Should the non
