ABSTRACT

We have previously argued that there are forms of greenhouse gas offsetting for which, when one emits and offsets, one imposes no risk. Orri Stefansson objects that our argument fails to distinguish properly between the people who stand to be harmed by one’s emissions and the people who stand to be benefited by one’s offsetting. We reply by emphasizing the difference between acting with a probability of making a difference to the distribution of harm and acting in a way that worsen’s someone’s prospect.

当我们排放和抵消时，我们是否会施加不适当的风险？回复斯蒂芬森

摘要

我们之前曾争论过，有一些温室气体抵消形式，当一个人排放和抵消时，不会带来任何风险。Orri Stefansson 反对说，我们的论点未能正确地区分会因排放而受到伤害的人和因抵消而受益的人。我们的回答是强调以可能改变伤害分布的可能性行事与以恶化某人前景的方式行事之间的区别。
