Meer over het boek

Moral fallacies contribute significantly to inaction on climate change by obscuring our responsibilities. The essay argues that merely identifying the effects of climate change, such as greenhouse gas emissions, is insufficient. It emphasizes the need to explore the underlying causes of our harmful behaviors, which stem from misconceptions about intergenerational justice and an inflated view of progress in consumer society. Addressing these moral issues could enhance our ability to act effectively, ensuring future generations inherit a livable planet.
