Description

Climate change is poised to threaten, disrupt, and transform human life, and the social, economic, and political institutions that structure it.

Philosophy and Climate Change argues that understanding climate change, and discussing how to address it, should be at the very center of our public conversation.

It shows that philosophy can make an enormous contribution to that conversation, but only if both philosophers and non-philosophers understand what it cancontribute.

The sixteen original articles collected in this volume both illustrate the diverse ways that philosophy can contribute to this conversation, and ways in which thinking about climate change can help to illuminate a range of topics of independent interest to philosophers.
