Question

What can you say about "global warming is not just political issue but also a moral issue"?

Answer 1

It was a moral issue before it was ever a political issue.

A moral issue arises from the need for change and to right a wrong, and so global warming by it's very nature has always been a moral issue.

Political issues tend to be born from latching on to what the public want so once it became a moral issue there was a demand from it by the public, hence becoming a political issue.

It does often appear to be a political issue first because ultimately it's the only substantial medium for change.

Answer 3

Bob sounds like he lives in a poor country and is jealous of rich country's,, take away from the rich and give to the poor

Answer 4

I agree with Kermits Nephew.  It WAS a moral issue (or at least, should have been) long before it became political.  Like any environmental issue, it can be fixed by a well developed environmental ethic.  The problem is that an environmental ethic is not something that is cultivated by many because it does not support big business...

And I'll leave it at that to avoid insulting potention allies...

Answer 5

It is only a moral issue for those who believe they did something wrong to make it happen, and are not willing to do anything to correct it.

Obviously, most people around the world do not believe in man made GW. If they did, huge changes would be taking place. Very little is  actually being done anywhere in the world.

Answer 6

It sure is.

The rich countries get most of the benefits from burning huge amounts of fossil fuels.

The poor countries will suffer most of the harm from global warming, which is mostly caused by that.  Their agriculture will be severely damaged (as will most of the world's) and they don't have the money to fix it.

Answer 7

Morality should never be legislated.  Morality is the realm of churches.

Gvmts are for protecting individual rights.
