The Ethics of Climate Change Panel Discussion
Amidst all the political and policy debate, the technical discussions and the controversies surrounding the science vs the sceptics, it is easy to forget the human impacts of the choices we make. Not just the big choices regarding policy, energy and infrastructure but the daily choices we face: what to buy, whether to travel, how to live. Must we fail to tackle the climate problem if we fail to change the way we think and act?
A panel of Peter Singer, Kartikeya Sarabhai and Tim Soutphommasane grapple with the ethics of our changing environment.
