Ethics Beyond Humanity
Integrating Animal Perspectives into Climate Justice Discourse
  

REGINA BOSCHUNG, SAHAR SADRAFSHARI, AND FILIPPO VEGEZZI IN CONVERSATION WITH MARKUS WILD


In a conversation about climate justice with Professor Markus Wild, whose philosophical work extends beyond the human sphere into animal ethics and naturalism, one might expect a call to abandon our human-centred mindset in favour of a more inclusive perspective. Instead, he proposed a more pragmatic and less radical approach, extending modern human-centred justice frameworks to include non-human animals in our response to climate change. From a broader perspective on migration and the limits of invasive species management to the role of animals as both contributors to and victims of climate change, Professor Wild challenged us to rethink not just how we protect nature, but how we live with it in a rapidly changing world.
