Eoin Duffy: TED Ed “The Trolley Problem”

British philosopher Philippa Foot introduced her ethical thought experiment The Trolley Problem in 1967 to back her argument that our moral judgments are powered by rational thought.

Ms. Foot died in 2010 but I’m confident she would approve of the clarity and charm Vancouver director/animator Eion Duffy’s signature witty minimalism and David Kamp’s gentle audio design bring to her work via TED Ed.
