Is it fair to leave future people to face a much harder, and increasingly hard, challenge because we refused to face an easier one?

Henry Shue

Introduction

Being human is hard enough without constantly ruminating on the past or worrying about the future.

Yet, the generation of humans currently living on planet Earth has a unique responsibility; if we don't react to climate change now, the generations that come after us will be faced with a global catastrophe.

Henry Shue is an American political philosopher and professor emeritus at the University of Oxford.

In The Pivotal Generation, published in January 2022, Shue draws on philosophical arguments and scientific data to explain why the present moment might be our last chance to counteract a global environmental crisis.
