摘要

气候变化已经是一个主要的全球威胁,但其许多最严重的影响还有几十年的时间。许多最终会受到影响的人仍然有机会减轻伤害。当考虑到气候变化的可避免负担时,看似合理的受害者往往会为自己陷入(或未能摆脱)伤害分担一些责任。这一事实应该纳入我们对气候引发的危害的伦理意义的思考,特别是强调不同能力避免和避免危害的重要性。目前,许多人在减少易受气候变化影响方面面临严重障碍,如贫困、缺乏教育以及流动的政治或法律障碍。气候政策讨论应该更多地强调减轻这些困难的根源,从而使人们能够选择在全球变暖的情况下承担什么风险。

Harm, Responsibility, and the Far-off Impacts of Climate Change
Climate change is already a major global threat, but many of its worst impacts are still decades away. Many people who will eventually be affected by it still have opportunities to mitigate harm. When considering the avoidable burdens of climate change, it seems plausible victims will often share some responsibility for putting themselves into (or failing to get out of) harm’s way. This fact should be incorporated into our thinking about the ethical significance of climate-induced harms, particularly to emphasize the importance of differential abilities to get and stay out of harm’s way. Currently, many people face serious obstacles to reducing their vulnerability to climate change, such as poverty, lack of education, and political or legal obstacles to mobility. Climate policy discussions should do more to emphasize the alleviation of these sources of difficulties, thereby empowering people to choose what risks they will bear in a warming world.
