Inaction on global warming is as reckless as drunken driving

Daniel Farber writes for The Washington Post, Jan. 5, 2016

You might question comparing carbon emissions to ordinary careless behavior. It’s certainly true that identifying who is the injured party in a car accident is easier than defining who is suffering from the additional boost our own actions are giving climate change. But how can we justify carelessly harming others simply because it is difficult to identify who will be hurt?
