Description
The author of the essay argues that we have a moral obligation to future generations, and that we should take into account their well-being when making decisions about the environment.
For many years the environment has been treated as a free commodity, but it has become clear that we cannot continue to exploit the environment without incurring great costs for our as well as future generations. Why Posterity Matters is the first comprehensive philosophical examination that explores our duties to future generations. It raises moral questions about intergenerational distribution or the relations between people who live in different times.
