\n*In the face of those stakes\, what are our responsibilities\, as individ uals\, communities\, and countries*?
\n*How should we work to reduce our carbon emissions\, and how quickly?*
\n*Who should make sacrifi ces\, and why?*
\n*What kinds of climate activism are effective and morally acceptable?*
\n*How do we become hopeful\, empowered\, and e ffective?*
