气候变化将威胁、扰乱和改变人类生活以及构成人类生活的社会、经济和政治制度。有鉴于此，了解气候变化并讨论如何应对它应该成为我们公共对话的核心。哲学可以为这种对话做出巨大的贡献，但前提是哲学家和非哲学家都明白它可以做出什么贡献。本卷中收集的十六篇原创文章都说明了哲学可以为这一对话做出贡献的多种方式，以及思考气候变化可以帮助阐明哲学家独立感兴趣的一系列主题的方式。
Climate change is poised to threaten, disrupt, and transform human life, and the social, economic, and political institutions that structure it. In light of this, understanding climate change, and discussing how to address it, should be at the very center of our public conversation. Philosophy can make an enormous contribution to that conversation, but only if both philosophers and non-philosophers understand what it can contribute. The sixteen original articles collected in this volume both illustrate the diverse ways that philosophy can contribute to this conversation, and ways in which thinking about climate change can help to illuminate a range of topics of independent interest to philosophers.
