The Ethics and Economics of Human Survival Virtual Seminar
On most of our planet, our civilization is based on heavy use of energy, which we largely generate through the burning of fossil fuels. In doing so, we release gases into the atmosphere which trap heat. That extra heat causes a variety of problems now, but will be ever more disastrous in the future. Those of us who suffer the most are among the least responsible for causing the problem.
Can we maintain our current standard of living in a manner that is more just?
What ethical framework can we use to accomplish this?
Don't miss a crucial climate education and discussion event with award-winning environmentalist Dr. Mitch Wagener, Climate Change Educator, Ecologist, and Professor of Biology at Western Connecticut State University.
