One of the major ongoing international crises is the humanitarian  crisis in Yemen that has been fueled by war, political, economic, and  other social upheaval in the region.  The  focus of the assignment is to bring attention to an ongoing crisis that  appears to get little attention in the west but is considered one  of the worst humanitarian crisis in our time.

Evaluate the morality of abortionists selling fetal body parts to the companies, the companies selling such parts to research institutions and the use of fetal body parts in research

/in /by

For this assignment you’ll have a total of 2 responses. 

PART A

Respond the inquiry below.

2. In the case below identify the consequences of the action taken and decide whether the action represented the greater good.

c. A physician on the staff of an urban medical center is approached by a lawyer from a remote part of the state and asked to testify on behalf of his client, a rural doctor charged with criminal negligence in the care of a patient.  The lawyer admits that his client is guilty of the charge.  He goes on to explain that although the doctor is old and not well versed in the latest medical knowledge, she is nevertheless competent; the negligence she is charged with resulted from the strain of being the only doctor in a large mountain area with a number of tiny towns and a total population of two thousand people.  The lawyer pleads with the medical center physician to testify that the negligent act was proper treatment.  The physician does so.

PART B

Answer ONE of the two inquiries below.

5. Reportedly, at least two companies specialize in buying the body parts of fetuses from abortion clinics and selling them to universities and medical institutes for use in research.  One of these companies reportedly charges $999 for a human brain under eight weeks’ gestation, $50 to $100 for eyes and ears, and $400 for an intact limbless trunk.  Evaluate the morality of (a) abortionists selling fetal body parts to the companies, (b) the companies selling such parts to research institutions, and (c) the use of fetal body parts in research.  In your evaluation discuss the relevant obligations, moral idealls, and consequences.

OR

7.  Several years ago a married couple, faced with the tragic fact that the husband had terminal cancer, made an important decision: His sperm would be frozen so that the wife could conceive their child after his death. Three months after his death she was impregnated with his sperm and subsequently gave birth to a little girl.  The Social Security Administration ruled that the child was not entitled to receive benefits as his heir.  At first thought, you might be inclined to judge this ruling morally insupportable because the ideal of fairness requires that this child be treated as any other heir.  Resist that judgment until you have used your imagination to identify the significant consequences that would likely follow (a) denying the child the status of an heir and (b) granting the child the status of heir. Compare those consequences and make your decision. (Explain your reasoning.)

Environmental Health and Human Health
: Health Hazards due to Air and Water Pollution Water is an essential element of life on earth. A human being can survive for only about one week without water. As the global population expands and increasing industrialization creates ever-growing demands for water, supply of this vital commodity has become endangered. Just as water, clean air is an essential element for the survival of life on earth. Air that is polluted can endanger our health and cause damage to trees, wildlife, and property. Using the South University Online Library or the Internet, research on the topic, “Various Health Hazards Caused by Water and Air Pollution.” Based on your understanding, create a 3- to 4-page Microsoft Word document that includes the answers to the following questions: What are the hazardous substances that may be found in drinking water and what are their impacts on our health? Describe how water is made safe for human consumption. Epidemiologic analyses have demonstrated a correlation between an increase in total daily mortality and an increase in air pollution. Provide examples to explain how historically significant fatal air pollution episodes (that were characterized by extreme increases in air pollution) lead to increase in mortality. Describe how greenhouse gases contribute to the greenhouse effect. Explain the term “global warming” and present arguments in favor of and against the proposition that global warming has occurred during the past century. What environmental outcomes have been attributed to global warming?
