Description:... A climate crisis and other pressures on planetary ecology are cause for profound anxiety. Climate change threatens to trap hundreds of millions of people in poverty and to separate further an already deeply divided world. Now, a new generation of activists is offering inspiration and hope. This book provides an accessible and empirically informed philosophical discussion of climate change, global poverty, and the importance of a political response that offers hope.
