Faith at the Frontiers – climate change denial and the politics of science


Faith at the Frontiers – climate change denial and the politics of science

We (Barney, Carmody, & Bethany) interview Dr Ondrej Dyck (material science PhD) on whether climate change is really happening and, if so, whether we should care. This episode goes to the heart of questions about how far we should trust science in a world saturated with political agendas and hidden motivations. And even if we agree on the facts, what ought we to do in light of them? That, we all recognise, is not a scientific question at all.

 

Here are links to the two documents we mention in our conversation:

 

IPCC Mitigation of Climate Change

 

NIPCC Climate Change Reconsidered
