We have discussed the Gerard text, which presents us with a number of positions on the environment and environmental crisis. So the natural question is to ask: on what basis do we choose our position? One move we can certainly make is to select our position based on its agreement, or apparent agreement, with our other views, say political ones: I choose position x because it is in agreement with my political beliefs. But this would be question-begging, for how is agreement with my political beliefs, or any others for that matter, a basis for a position on the environment? It seems that what we need is a way of evaluating the given positions, and this could help up make our choice. How to proceed?...
