Hello:)
I'm a student currently undertaking a study on philosophy and I am interested in understanding what are Aristotle and Thomas's view on the Kyoto Protocol.
I understand Aristotle treats happiness as the end point for all human, thus the term eudaimonia. From my understanding of the Kyoto Protocol, Kant will disagree that the Protocol is ethical as humanity is treated as a mean to achieve an end (monetary gain from the emission trading system) but I would like to know how Aristotle and Thomas would view the Protocol.

Thanks!!

@Rayson,
Ray, I hate to be the one to tell you, but Aristotle and St. Thomas Aquinas are both dead. Didn't you see the obituary??

Aristotle would probably have said something in Greek.
