Who are some heavyweight philosophers now working on climate change?

heavyweight as in well-known, who have turned their interests recently to anything related to our climate emergency? (could be politically/existentially oriented)

(obviously there's always been chomsky, arne naess, and singer)

The french philosopher Bruno Latour has been working almost solely on the climate (or maybe rather *ecological*) crisis for the last decade. For instance his works Facing Gaia, Down to Earth and recently Mémo sur la nouvelle classe écologique, which will be released in english soon. 

To give a quick recap: His main point is that there is no culture/nature distinction, and he uses that to critique the political landscape as it is. The problem with politics today is that it rests on this distinction, since it asks the question of how we should distribute recourses (nature) between the members of our society (culture). But this is a mistake. Rather, we should ask *what are we are depending on?* The answer is for Latour the earth, as in fields, streams, animals and so on. So they should also count as political agents. For instance: when we use the term "class" we normally mean a subset of humans, but what if we could include animal or plant life in the notion of class?
