Climate Change, Difficulty, and Ignorance. Robichaud, P. In The Routledge Handbook of Applied Climate Change Ethics, pages 222–230. 2023. doi abstract bibtex This chapter will canvas some of the positions that have been defended in the literature regarding the way in which ignorance regarding climate change should impact our moral appraisal of individuals. It will then examine how the difficulty of ‘getting things right’ in these domains should affect the analysis. It will argue that careful attention to the nature and degree of difficulty will allow for a much more subtle understanding of how ignorance can impact climate ethics, and that this complex moral appraisal should be undertaken with care, but that we should welcome the fact that the complexities of real-life cases can be captured by several of the relevant theories on offer. © 2024 Taylor & Francis.
