A. Ecoterrorism: "terrorism" with an ecological motive such as attacks against corporations perceived to be harming the natural environment.  Examples might be burning a building, blowing up a dam, grafitting, etc...

B. Environmental Ethics: is the discipline in philosophy that studies the moral relationship of human beings to, and also the value and moral status of, the environment and its non-human contents.  In other words, an environmental ethic determines what we are obligated to do with regards to the ENVIRONMENT.
