Models which were developed by epidemiologists about the theory of diseases, always refer to the importance of the interaction among human as disease host, environment and disease a¬gents. Based on the complexity of the relationship between human and their surrounding envi¬ronment, in epidemiological point of view, how the environment is treated and perceived by hu¬man is necessary to be investigated. This paper tries to present a study about some ethics sys¬tems which are widely known, and at the same time elso tries to tiiscuss same highly correlated aspects, in the context of disease epidemiology.

Ethics system of anthropocentrism or shallow environmental ethics which considers human as the centrum and the only possessor of the en¬tire universe, and therefore they are permitted to do anything for their satisfaction and needs, give justification to the exploitation of the earth which are actually, sooner or la ter, the unneeded impacts, will affect the human being. The anthropocentrisme ethics is refused by biocentrism ethics or intermediate environmental ethics and ecocentrism ethics or deep environmental ethics which were bom from the revitalization spirit of local wisdoms from traditional communities in many countries in encountering the hegemony of westem cultures. ln responding to the insertion of extemal culture and technology, some issues must be prudently seen, such as: instead of gaining advantages, inappropriate application of technology may causing disadvantages; and the joining culture which is attached to the technology may change the existing life-style, consumpt¬ion pattem and the insight of the society; so that, it is cruciel for the govemment to be involved by endorsing healthy public policy.

To conclude, ethics system which has to be supported is the one that appreciates every elements in ecosystem as important as the others; and it is also im¬portent to forming environmentally caring generation through early age education,
