This book presents a serious and workable solution to the grave problem of climate change, grounded in practical cosmopolitan ethics. In particular it addresses a key aspect of climate change politics and policy that is often overlooked: the role of individuals.
Global Ethics and Climate Change combines the science of climate change with ethical critique to expose its impact, the increasing intensity of dangerous trends – particularly growing global affluence, material consumption and pollution – and the intensifying moral dimensions of changes to the environment. It shows you that global justice is vital to mitigating climate change.
