A New Way of Thinking About Our Climate Crisis: The Rational-Comprehensive Approach

by Joseph Wayne Smith, Sandro Positano, Nigel Stocks

The calls to address climate change with a radical revision of values, philosophy, and world view, have come too late, claim these four medical scholars and practitioners from Australia, and what is needed now is immediate practical action rather than academic speculation and critique. They bring the bad news that humanity will have to muddle through with the conceptual materials it already has to hand; they advocate a voluntary moratorium on many of the debates that take up time and energy that are direly needed on the front lines.
