About this episode
On this audio essay I have a good mull about the value of ethics for thinking about the environment. I discuss the limits and benefits of conventional forms of Practical Ethics and Environmental ethics, the limits of moral agency, how to connect ethics to technology. The following thinkers and writers come up –Donna Haraway, Arne Naess, Peter Singer, Aldo Leopold, David Wallace-Wells. Building on Haraway and Naess interdisciplinary approach I try to figure out what a “deep tech” might look like, that is to say, how can we think of science and technology as truly connected to concrete things we do in everyday life. In other words, how do we make the future real, again.
