Obligations to future generations and acceptable risks of human extinction. Tonn, B. E. Futures, 41(7):427–435, September, 2009.
Paper doi abstract bibtex This paper addresses the question, ‘what is the acceptable risk of human extinction?’ Three qualitative obligations to future generations – The Fairness Criterion, The Unfinished Business Criterion, and the Maintaining Options Criterion – are used to produce quantitative estimates of the acceptable risk. The resulting acceptable risks are all at or below 10−20, a very stringent standard.
