Connecting Environmental Ethics with Technology Ethics Institute of Philosophy – Czech Academy of Sciences, Prague
5 September, 2023
Keynote speakers: Vincent Blok (Wageningen University) and Leonnie Bossert (University of Tübingen)
Usually, technology ethics is not informed by environmental ethics and vice versa. But many ethical reflections on climate change, sustainability, Anthropocene, artificial intelligence (AI), or robotics could be enriched if these fields considered each other’s work. To do this is especially important today, when urgent global issues crystallize around these topics and all intellectual resources are needed to tackle them. The one-day workshop, situated on the nexus environmental ethics and technology ethics, aims to bring together philosophers from both fields to think about AI and climate change and related topics on these interesting crossroads, borders, and bridges.
