CHAPTER

What Is Harm?

I don't think it's about immediacy at the end of the day. Does harm have to be an immediate thing, or can it be multiple steps down the road? If we don't interfere now, then this thing will happen, which isn't a harm, and this things will happen, and this thing. But eventually we get too harmful stuff. So I don't see any reason to deny that there's harm when there's significant pollution in the atmosphere... And so we might want to stop it before you get to the point where it's actually harmful,. That seems reasonable to me.
