Download Climate Matters: Ethics in a Warming World AudioBook Free
A vital new moral point of view on the climate change controversy. Esteemed philosopher John Broome avoids the familiar ideological stances on climate change policy and examines the issue via an invigorating new lens. As he considers the moral proportions of climate change, he reasons obviously through what universal benchmarks of goodness and justice require of us, both as citizens and as governments. His conclusions - some as challenging as they are reasonable - will challenge and enlighten. Eco-conscious listeners may be stunned to hear they have a work to offset all their carbon emissions, while policy producers will grapple with Broome's evaluation of what if anything is owed to future decades. From the science of greenhouse gases to the elaborate logic of cap and trade, Broome shows how the principles that underlie every day decision making also provide simple and effective ideas for confronting climate change. Weather Matters is an essential contribution to 1 of the paramount issues of your time.
