This book examines the moral dimensions of the climate crisis, with special attention to land-use emissions and biodiversity loss. Drawing on deontological, consequentialist, and virtue-based approaches, it explores how ethical theories can guide fair and effective climate action. Using Brazil as a key case study, it shows that countries contributing significantly to land-use emissions have moral obligations to protect biodiversity and human rights by halting deforestation and promoting sustainable development. The book proposes hybrid principles of justice that integrate poverty, historical responsibility, and biodiversity protection, offering a more comprehensive framework for climate ethics. Written in clear and accessible language, it speaks to scholars, policymakers, and practitioners concerned with global justice, environmental ethics, and sustainability. By linking ethical reasoning to concrete policy challenges, it shows how moral responsibility must be shared across individuals and nations concerned with next generations.
