Liberalism faces a tension between its commitment to minimal interference with individual liberty and the urgent need for strong collective action on global climate change. This paper attempts resolve that tension. It does so one hand by defending an expanded model of moral responsibility, according which set individuals can be responsible, qua 'putative group', harm resulting from predictable aggregation their acts. On other, it defends collectivized version principle. The claim is...
However far we are from either in practice, basic global and intergenerational justice, including climate change mitigation, taken to be theoretically compatible. If population grows as predicted, this could cease the case. This paper asks whether that tragic legacy can now averted without hard or even choices on policy. Current generations must navigate between: a high-stakes gamble undeveloped technology; violating human rights; demanding unbearable sacrifices of already badly off;...
This paper expands the political liberal case for 'education justice' to include climate justice education. It begins with empowering and motivating learners promote institutions basic global institutional justice. Beyond this, three challenges emerge. Firstly, model is premised on free equal citizens cooperating mutual advantage. In fact, flourishing of some has long been enabled by systematic disadvantaging others, along race, gender, class other lines. Thus, education must critical,...
This article argues that parents have a special, shared duty to organize for collective action on climate change mitigation and adaptation, but not the reason one might assume. The apparently obvious is threatens life, health community next generation, special their children protect basic human interests. argument fails because many could from these central harms without taking more general combat change, let alone mitigate it. Instead, subtler reasons are advanced, drawing children’s...

This paper outlines a moral framework for the debate on global population policy. Questions of population, climate justice and are morally inseparable failure to address them as such has dangerous implications. Considerations lend additional urgency existing collective duties act poverty change. Choice-providing procreative policies key part that. However, even were we collectively fulfil these duties, would face hard choices over whether introduce incentive-changing policies. Thus, there is...
This paper asks whether parents owe it to their children bring them up as good global climate citizens. Four arguments are considered, with increasing success: that there social disadvantages immoral behaviour; moral integrity is required for a full human life; the capacity such so needed; and duty demanded by life-shaping parent–child relationship fact have justice duties. Given this, enabling motivating one’s child respond change part of valuing future member same community oneself.
Abstract Bolted ring-flanges connect structures via two circular flanges, secured with pre-loaded bolts. In offshore wind turbine support the flanges monopile and transition piece, piece tower, adjacent tower sections. Fatigue analysis of bolted in is a critical step during design. The consideration geometric imperfections can be an influential factor assessed fatigue damage over some given Limit State load case. Schemes to analyse effect using Finite Element Method simulations are available...
