In March 2024 a week-long OZSW course took place that discussed core concepts, approaches and current debates in the field of climate ethics. Invited speakers led seminars on mitigation duties, moral dilemmas within the IPCC, legitimate expectations, normative issues in climate economics, geo-engineering and normative uncertainty, animals and adaptation, climate litigation and responsibility, and future generations.
