{"product_id":"the-moral-challenge-of-dangerous-darrel-moellendorf-9781107678507","title":"The Moral Challenge of Dangerous Climate Change","description":"This book examines the threat that climate change poses to the projects of poverty eradication, sustainable development, and biodiversity preservation. It offers a careful discussion of the values that support these projects and a critical evaluation of the normative bases of climate change policy. This book regards climate change policy as a public problem that normative philosophy can shed light on. It assumes that the development of policy should be based on values regarding what is important to respect, preserve, and protect. What sort of climate change policy do we owe the poor of the world who are particularly vulnerable to climate change? Why should our generation take on the burden of mitigating climate change that is caused, in no small part, by emissions from people now dead? What value is lost when natural species go extinct, as they may well do en masse because of climate change? This book presents a broad and inclusive discussion of climate change policy, relevant to those with interests in public policy, development studies, environmental studies, political theory, and moral and political philosophy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Darrel Moellendorf\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1107678501\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781107678507\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/07\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 273\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.85lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 5.90w x 1.10d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/01\/2014 pg. 625","brand":"Darrel Moellendorf","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46546084004095,"sku":"9781107678507","price":42.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_e57b75a0-4afe-4674-9f81-0f3632f1f2b6.jpg?v=1738184082","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-moral-challenge-of-dangerous-darrel-moellendorf-9781107678507","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
