Environmental Ethics represents a representative starting point for the construction of contemporary environmental characterisations; mainly in Latin America. This refers to a re-evaluation of environmental ethics. In this sense, it is important to analyse this perspective from the alternatives proposed in the face of the problems and challenges that today occupy eco-environmentalist philosophy. Being always implies a becoming together with others; therefore, all actions with others is a reciprocal doing; this refers to an essential ethical principle if we wish to organise humanising ways of life. Environmental ethics refers to a series of epistemological elements, among them: ecocentric principle, subject-object relationship, environmental complexity, rationality, interdisciplinarity, transdisciplinarity and environmental interpretation, which represent the backbone of the strategies proposed in the face of contemporary eco-environmental urgencies. The aim is to sustain existence in conditions that reproduce justice and equity as inherent assets of life.
