The Epz Ethics of Climate Change: Right and Wrong in a Warming World by James Garvey

3.0

The good in this book is leading through a moral argument in favour of climate change action (multiple arguments, in fact). The bad is that the framework used to frame the argument is at best lightly sketched, and at worst deliberately ignored. For example, the first chapter is on the fact that scientific consensus at time of writing supported an anthropogenic basis for climate change. The evidence in support of this is given, and clear. What isn’t given is a discussion of the philosophy of science, and how a Popperian outlook leads scientists to sound like they’re hedging on points where they’re highly confident.

So good book, not a long read, lays out its argument well, doesn’t support the argument enough or provide beneficial context in my view.
