The Climate Emergency: Elements of a Repair of the Future

Aktivität: Vorträge › Vortrag › Science to Public

Beschreibung

In recent years, the climate crisis has developed dramatically. Some cities have already called the crisis an "emergency case". This contribution explains the meaning of a climate emergency. It argues that the climate scenario differs in many respects from more usual "emergency case". According to a well-reasoned argument of Walzer in the context of war ethics, emergency claims for an ethical reassessment of a situation. The first half of the talk tries to apply this insight to the climate crisis. The second part focuses on some tools for a "repair of the future". I shall try to outline some insights that focus on the food sector.

Angela Kallhoff is University Professor of Ethics with special emphasis on Applied Ethics at the University of Vienna, Austria.
