Why this dilemma matters

These choices are rarely between good and bad — they are between different distributions of harm. Choosing “Yes. Ancient ecosystems are irreplaceable” prioritises rules that hold everyone the same; choosing “No. Conservation cannot demand poverty from locals” gives more weight to choices that account for difference.

Worth asking yourself

  • Would you accept the outcome from the losing side?
  • Are we solving the problem or moving it?
