Climate change is now the biggest challenge faced by humanity
worldwide and ethics is the crucial missing component in the debate
about what to do about this enormous threat. This book examines why
thirty-five years of discussion of human-induced warming has failed
to acknowledge fundamental ethical concerns, and subjects climate
change's most important policy questions to ethical analysis. This
book examines why ethical principles have failed to gain traction
in policy formation and recommends specific strategies to ensure
that climate change policies are consistent with ethical
principles. Because climate change is a global problem that
requires a global solution and given that many nations refuse
participation due to perceived inequities in proposed international
solutions, this book explains why ensuring that nations,
sub-national governments, organizations, businesses and individuals
acknowledge and respond to their ethical obligations is both an
ethical and practical mandate. This book is the first of its kind
to go beyond a mere account of relevant ethical questions to offer
a pragmatic guide on how to make ethical principles influential in
formulating the world's response to climate change. Written by
Donald A. Brown, a leading voice in the field, it should be of
interest to policy makers, and those studying environmental policy,
climate change policy, international relations, environmental
ethics and philosophy.
