What responsibility do we have to future generations, and how can the choices we make today shape the world for centuries to come?

In What We Owe the Future, philosopher William MacAskill introduces the concept of longtermism, arguing that protecting and improving the lives of future generations should be one of our greatest moral priorities.

Exploring challenges such as climate change, pandemics, the potential collapse of civilisation, and the rise of artificial intelligence, MacAskill examines how humanity can prepare for an uncertain future while creating opportunities for generations yet to come.

Combining philosophy, history, and practical ideas, this optimistic yet thought-provoking book encourages readers to consider the lasting impact of their actions.

An engaging read for anyone interested in ethics, philosophy, sustainability, and the future of humanity.
