B.Medical ethics and business ethics exclusively
C.The ethics of chess and other board games
D.Ancient Roman military ethics
Explanation: The official 2026 Hinweise specify that Wahlmodul 2 ('Ökologische Ethik') centers on two sub-areas: climate ethics (Klimaethik) and animal ethics (Tierethik), both examined through verbindliche Materialien.
2In climate ethics discussions drawing on the verbindliche Materialien (e.g., Bernward Gesang's work), what central ethical question does climate ethics primarily address?
A.Who bears moral responsibility for causing and addressing climate change, and how should the associated burdens and benefits be justly distributed
B.Which country has the most beautiful national flag
C.How to calculate the exact orbital mechanics of the planet Mars
D.Which sport requires the most physical stamina
Explanation: Climate ethics addresses questions of moral responsibility for causing and addressing climate change, and how the associated costs, burdens, and benefits should be justly distributed among individuals, generations, and nations.
3Dieter Birnbacher's 'Klimaethik. Eine Einführung' (2022), part of the verbindliche Materialien, addresses which specific philosophical question in its opening chapters?
A.Whether it is already too late to meaningfully act on climate change, and what ethical frameworks apply at different levels of the problem
B.The chemical formula for photosynthesis
C.The history of ancient Egyptian irrigation techniques
D.The rules of a specific board game
Explanation: Birnbacher's introduction to climate ethics opens by examining whether meaningful climate action remains possible ('Is it too late?') and outlines the different ethical levels (individual, national, global) at which climate ethics operates.
4Which best describes 'intergenerationelle Gerechtigkeit' (intergenerational justice), a key concept in climate ethics discussions?

A.The Deutscher Ethikrat (German Ethics Council)

B.Positions that give animals exactly equal legal voting rights to humans
C.Positions that consider only plant life, with no reference to humans or animals
D.A term with no connection to any ethical framework
Explanation: Anthropocentric positions center moral consideration primarily on human interests and needs, treating animal welfare as ethically significant mainly insofar as it relates to human concerns (e.g., stewardship, human character, or indirect duties) rather than granting animals independent moral status.

B.Positions identical in every respect to anthropocentric views with no distinction
C.Positions that deny any moral status to living beings whatsoever
D.A term describing only mathematical set theory
