Climate change is arguably the great problem confronting humanity, but we have done little to head off this looming catastrophe. In this book, the author illuminates our dangerous inaction by placing the environmental crisis in an entirely new light, considering it as an "ethical" failure. He clarifies the moral situation, identifying the temptations (or "storms") that make us vulnerable to a certain kind of corruption.
