Description

Explore the philosophical and political reasons behind our global response to environmental crises. In "Reason in a Dark Time," philosopher Dale Jamieson examines the period from the 1992 Rio Earth Summit to the 2009 Copenhagen Climate Conference. Despite concerted international efforts, greenhouse gas emissions and atmospheric concentrations have continued to rise, making global warming an observable reality. This volume provides a deep look into why the struggle against climate change has failed to meet its goals. By centering the discussion in philosophy, Jamieson addresses the historical, economic, and political dimensions of the crisis. This book is an essential read for those interested in environmental ethics and understanding what our collective failure means for the future of our planet.
