Discuss the Legal Issues Surrounding Solyndra, the California based Solar Panel Manufacturer

Introduction

The production and use of Solar Panel, both generally as from the different Solar Panel sources, has a undeniable ethical implications. Issues such as access to Solar Panel and economic development, equity in the distribution of economic resources, environmental impact intra-and intergenerational or consumption of exhaustible resources are determined by the use made of the Solar Panel or the Solar Panel source which is used for what choices involve one or the other largely assumption of certain ethical values. This text proposes while the decisions taken with regard to Solar Panel political, with the highest possible level of consensus, and a Science relevant participation in regard to the production of appropriate information for the process, and development of innovations for as far as possible to minimize the ethical dilemma exists.

Discussion

Overall, the analysis from the perspective of sustainability mainly reflected concerns about resource depletion, or the environmental impact of Solar Panel. However, his treatment of issues of social equity is usually instrumental: in purity, the only relevant for the analysis is whether a particular social structure is sustainable or not, regardless of ethical evaluation. In fact, there may be less acceptable social structures from the ethical point of view but perfectly sustainable over time - see for example some castes structures, or some dictatorships -. Therefore, the sustainability analysis does not cover in principle all ethical issues related to the production and use of the Solar Panel because it does not explicitly one of the fundamental: equitable distribution of resources. Indeed, until now, the perception of no limits in resources, and development, allowed circumvent the issue distributive where everyone can grow, the key issue is how to get a higher growth, and for that the answer lies in achieving greater efficient allocation of resources.

However, if perceived limits on growth, comes the harder question of equity, allocation of limited resources. And not only among the current generation and future (look generally covered by the analysis of the sustainability), but also within the present generation. Of course it is possible to question the basic premise - the absence of growth, even extreme version of Meadows et al (2004) - and defend the role of improved technology that, as permitted escape from the Malthusian trap, now allows us to maintain levels sufficient or even increasing development for all, in line with the ideas of Simon (1996). In any case, the current situation is good shows that even under the promise of unlimited growth, still frictions exist and flagrant injustices that make the component distributive can not be ignored. So Adouze (1997) in the first document on Ethics of Solar Panel developed by UNESCO considers that given the current situation is urgent to establish a modicum of justice in the distribution of economic resources and Solar Panel. Therefore is easy to see how the economic, environmental and associated social Solar ...
