Anthropogenic Climate Change. This ten-page undergraduate paper discusses the moral obligation of the present generation to slow the potentially catastrophic rate of anthropogenic climate change, to provide resources for coping with its harmful effects, and to deal with the uncertainties of scientific environmental research. In the process, the economic and ethical issues are debated and a determination is made that environmental protection is morally right and that economic considerations are of secondary importance. 10 pgs.
