“Life is not something we go through or that happens to us; it’s something we create by our decisions,” says OSU Professor Kathleen Dean Moore in her latest book, Moral Ground: Ethical Action for a Planet in Peril.
In this podcast — by skype from her home in Corvallis, Oregon — Professor Moore talks with BCB host Barry Peters about her upcoming presentationat Grace Church on Saturday, May 2nd on: “Red Sky in Morning: Ethics and Climate Change.” The themes of her talk come from her book, which gathers testimonies from a hundred of the world’s moral leaders calling us to honor our obligations to future generations.
Moore is a Distinguished Professor of Philosophy at Oregon State University, where she teaches environmental ethics, philosophy of nature and other courses in OSU’s new MA program in Environmental Leadership.
