The ethics of climate change

December 10, 2013 @ 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm

$10

Concluding the fall’s The Five Thousand Pound Life programming, which focuses on climate change communication and ethics, Stephen Gardiner will explore how individuals should think about their responsibilities within a global, intergenerational crisis such as climate change.

The lecture will begin by framing the climate problem as a severe ethical challenge: a “perfect moral storm.”  It will then confront the worry, memorably expressed by Dale Jamieson, that “today we face the possibility that the global environment may be destroyed, yet no one will be responsible.”
