I was reading Broome and Foley paper about creating a World Climate Bank that would fund climate risk mitigation by issuing debt to be paid by future generations—fair enough, they’re the main beneficiaries. It’s an intergenerational win-win.
Let’s ignore possible credit risk problems… could there be anything similar for other projects concerning longtermists?
