The book addresses a key global problem from a perspective that is widely acknowledged as vital but underexplored in both public and academic discussions.
Such a collection is a valuable resource at a time when concern about climate change is accelerating and the search for substantial political progress is reaching a critical point.
The editors are all pioneers in their areas and have each achieved international recognition.
The book contains a range of intellectual disciplines, including philosophy, political science, and economics.
It does not set out to advance a particular point of view, but rather to give a sense of the core debates by representing divergent considerations and voices.

This collection gathers a set of seminal papers from the emerging area of ethics and climate change. Topics covered include human rights, international justice, intergenerational ethics, individual responsibility, climate economics, and the ethics of geoengineering. Climate Ethics is intended to serve as a source book for general reference, and for university courses that include a focus on the human dimensions of climate change. It should be of broad interest to all those concerned with global justice, environmental science and policy, and the future of humanity.
