VARGAS, Florentino Márquez. Environmental Bioethics in a Latin American perspective. rev.latinoam.bioet. [online]. 2020, vol.20, n.2, pp.55-73. Epub 23-Abr-2021. ISSN 1657-4702. https://doi.org/10.18359/rlbi.4910.
The present document develops a search for environmental postulates inherent in the epistemological body of bioethics, based on the founding writings of such field of study. Latin American bioethicists are incorporated into this initiative which by the end of the XX century, at the behest of the 1992 Earth Summit, promote bioethics committed to a new coexistence with ecosystems. The methodology involved a documentary review under the qualitative approach with a hermeneutic perspective, which included the implementation of programs for concurrency analysis of semantic fields. The review period covered the period between 1970 to 2017, during which there were important global reports on environmental issues. In conclusion, it was determined that in the field environmental bioethics, postulates are consolidated oriented to the defense of life in any of its biodiverse expressions; the interdependence of healthy people in harmony with healthy ecosystems; structuring environmental rules for the proper interrelationship between urban areas and forested areas; and the promotion of industrial production and consumption on a human scale, without affectation of natural environments.
