This title examines the ethical and philosophical questions
confronting activists, policy makers and educators in the battle
against climate change. "Future Ethics: Climate Change and
Political Action" presents a comprehensive examination of the
philosophical questions facing activists, policy makers and
educators fighting the causes of climate change. These questions
reflect a genuine crisis in ethical reflection for individuals and
groups in today's society and are also underpinned by a broader
question of how the future forms the basis for action in the
present. For instance, does the reporting of impending 'points of
no return' in global warming renew a spirit of resistance or a
spirit of fatalism? How is the future of the human species really
imagined in society and how does this affect our sense of ethical
responsibility? In this fascinating book, thirteen leading experts
explore the philosophical and ethical issues underlying social
responses to climate change and in particular how these responses
draw upon ideas about the future. Ideal for students of
environmental ethics in multiple disciplines, the book provides
sources and discussion for anyone interested in issues to do with
environment, society and ethics.
