Kevin, who I’ve known since before there was really an Internet, sent along this article, which deals with what the present owes to the future. It’s an interesting article, and raises a lot of important questions for how we think morally about our present actions with respect to future generations, but this approach has some important limitations as well.
This was recorded early last week as our family was entering the throes of COVID, and since then, the article discussed here has been taken up several places, including here and here—kudos to Kevin for being ahead of the curve!
