About this listen
A vital new moral perspective on the climate change debate. Esteemed philosopher John Broome avoids the familiar ideological stances on climate change policy and examines the issue through an invigorating new lens. As he considers the moral dimensions of climate change, he reasons clearly through what universal standards of goodness and justice require of us, both as citizens and as governments. His conclusions - some as demanding as they are logical - will challenge and enlighten.
Eco-conscious listeners may be surprised to hear they have a duty to offset all their carbon emissions, while policy makers will grapple with Broome’s analysis of what if anything is owed to future generations. From the science of greenhouse gases to the intricate logic of cap and trade, Broome reveals how the principles that underlie everyday decision making also provide simple and effective ideas for confronting climate change. Climate Matters is an essential contribution to one of the paramount issues of our time.

One of the most important books in climate ethics
John Broome is a top Oxford moral philosopher. Here, he makes clear and compelling arguments about our ethical responsibilities in the face of climate change, both for individuals and for governments. Essential reading for ethicists interested in climate and climate hawks interested in ethics!
