Abstract: Environmental negligence is one of the most significant moral failures of our time. This paper looks at the complex moral psychology and philosophy behind humanity's weak response to climate change and ecological damage. By combining insights from moral psychology, neuroscience, philosophy, and environmental ethics, we examine how our evolved cognitive systems, psychological defense mechanisms, and disjointed moral frameworks lead to a lack of action on environmental issues. We argue that our moral framework, developed through evolutionary pressures for immediate social cooperation, struggles to handle abstract, long-term, global threats like climate change. This analysis discusses concepts such as akrasia (weakness of will), moral disengagement, moral error theory, and the fragmentation of modern moral discourse as described by Alasdair MacIntyre. We suggest that tackling environmental negligence calls for technological solutions and a fundamental rethinking of moral frameworks to connect our evolved psychology with the unique challenges of the Anthropocene.
Keywords: Environmental negligence, Akrasia, Anthropocene, Moral Error Theory and Nihilism, Moral Disengagement
