Selection 4 - A Sand Country Alamanac

In our world today everyone looks for safety, prosperity, comfort, long life, and dullness.  We all look for the same thing, because that is what we know. 
Ethics is a process in ecological evolution. "Its sequences may be described in ecological as well as in philosophical terms. An ethic, ecologically, is a limitation freedom of action in the struggle for existance.  An ethic, philosophically, is a differentiation of social from anti-social conduct." (Thomas Easton)
So overall your ethics are your personal conduct and belief, is what you do wrong or right?
As Thomas says "Ethics are possibly a kind of community instinct in-the-making".
