Counting the Cost of Global Warming

John Broome

John Broome gives a masterful account of the ways in which philosophers and economists can approach the question of our responsibility to future generations, with particular reference to the problems of how to 'discount' future harms such as those resulting from climate change. 'A superbly clear and illuminating discussion of some of the central moral questions raised by global warming.

Apart from Sen, I know of no-one who combines philosophy and economics as well as Broome.' - Derek Parfit

'One of the most incisive and thought-provoking documents to appear on the philosophy of environmental economics and environmental issues in the last decade. It warrants close scruting. A tour-de-force.' - David Pearce

'Any philosopher working in environmental ethics should read it.' - Philosophical Books
