Written both for general readers and college students, Dialogues on Climate Justice provides an engaging philosophical introduction to climate justice, and should be of interest to anyone wanting to think seriously about the climate crisis.

The story follows the life and conversations of Hope, a fictional protagonist whose life is shaped by a terrifyingly real problem: climate change. From the election of Donald Trump in 2016 until the 2060s, the book documents Hope’s discussions with a diverse cast of characters. As she ages, her conversations move from establishing the nature of the problem, to engaging with climate skepticism, to exploring her own climate responsibilities, through managing contentious international negotiations, to considering big technological fixes, and finally, as an older woman, to reflecting with her granddaughter on what one generation owes another. Following a philosophical tradition established by Plato more than two thousand years ago, these dialogues are not only philosophically substantive and carefully argued, but also distinctly human. The differing perspectives on display mirror those involved in real-world climate dialogues going on today.

Key Features:

  • Written in an engaging dialogue form, which includes characterization, clear exchanges of ideas, and a compelling story arc
  • Clearly organized to allow readers both in-depth consideration and rapid overviews of various topics
  • Memorable examples that enable and encourage discussion inside and outside the classroom
  • An Introduction to the book aimed at instructors, which includes helpful instructions for teaching the book and engaging student assignments
