The Ethics of Climate Change

In John Broome's The ethics of climate change Broome talks about how future generations will suffer harmful effects of global climate change. The only thing is they will be a lot richer then we are. This brings up a very hard ethical choice. Do we change our ways to help the environment or do we stay course and help future generations to become richer. In my opinion I think that most people will not change there ways. People want to be richer, and they will do anything to no matter what the costs to the environment. That is why i don't think people will change there ways. When people here ways to get richer they will do whatever they can to get more money. If people hear that they should help the environment they will agree because they don't want to hurt the planet but then money is the thing that will cause them not to help because they don't want to spend it. This show that people will do anything no matter who or what it hurts to get richer.
