A Moral Climate:
the ethics of global warming

Climate change is a global problem requiring a global solution. But what are the ethical and moral implications for us in finding solutions? How does what we do in Australia affect the world’s poor? What would Australia’s fair share of the earth’s resources look like? What should we be doing to acknowledge our historical responsibility?
