科学的环境伦理学在认识人与环境的相互作用中起着关键作用.现代环境伦理学是对现代人类环境行为的哲学反思。环境伦理学理论的发展及其在现实中的应用决定了环境伦理学的观点。可持续发展是指人与环境相互作用的和谐和代际责任，强调人口、资源、环境与发展的和谐关系，为子孙后代奠定持续健康的资源环境基础。中央政府提出的中国和谐社会的建设，需要环境伦理学的覆盖。开放性环境伦理的内涵包括尊重自然、关怀人类个体、尊重后代发展，即兼顾自然价值、个人和人类利益以及代际福利。环境伦理在区域发展中的作用包括认知、批判、教育、激励、调节、立法和促进环境规制。资源开发粗放、人口增长过快、产业结构不合理、福利分配不公和科技发展的双重效应是区域发展中存在的主要问题。以区域可持续发展为目标的环境伦理观的形成，不仅可以协调人口、资源、环境与经济发展的关系，而且可以引导行为选择，推动社会政治体制转型，强化法律的体系，提高公众的环境意识。
The scientific environmental ethics plays a key role in the recognition of the human- environment interactions. Modern environmental ethics is the philosophical re-thinking of modern human race environmental behavior. The development of environmental ethics theory, as well as its application in reality, determines the viewpoints of environmental ethics. Sustainable development implies harmony on human-environment interactions and inter- generation responsibility, with emphasis on a harmonious relationship among population, resources, environment and development, so as to lay a sustainable and healthy foundation of resources and environment for future generations. The harmonious society construction in China that is raised by the Chinese central government should be covered by environmental ethics. The connotation of open environmental ethics includes a respect for nature, care for the individual human race, and respect for the development of future generations, which means giving consideration to natural values, individual and human race benefits and welfare across generations. The role of environmental ethics in regional development consists of cognition, criticism, education, inspiration, adjusting, legislation and promoting environmental regulations. The major problems in regional development are extensive resource exploration, fast population growth, irrational industrial structure, unfair welfare distribution and the twofold effects of science and technology development. The formulation of environmental ethics that aims at regional sustainable development, can not only harmonize the relationship of population, resource, environment and economic development, but also guide behavior selection, push social and political system transformation, strengthen the legal system, and raise environmental awareness of the public.
