What “longtermism” gets wrong about climate change
This tech boy "longtermism" idea has been attracting a lot of criticism lately, all of it justified as far as I can tell. I doubt that as a semi philosophical idea it has really attracted that much of the public's attention. But still, it is a worry when the super rich start believing in reasons to downplay the issue of climate change, because they have the capacity to influence public opinion which, in democracies, can lead to inaction.
