Climate Gridlock: Science, Politics, & Credibility

Title: Climate Gridlock: Science, Politics, & Credibility
Runtime: 52:04
Date posted: 16 years ago
Description: According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, the planet has just come through the warmest decade, year, spring and summer on record. Furthermore, our best scientific analyses predict that worse -- much worse -- is to come. Nevertheless, in the midst of this summer's record-breaking heat, the US Senate declined to even consider legislation to regulate greenhouse gas emission.

How did we come to such an impasse? One might think that the high stakes of climate change would make expertise on the subject our highest priority, yet, just when we need it most, scientific authority has proven of depressingly little use in the forging of responsible policy. I suggest that this failure requires us to rethink both the relation between science and politics, and the nature of scientific proof and responsibility.

This busy time forces students to focus mainly on their academic progress which doesn't always allow freedom to explore a new interest or take advantage of the many cultural resources that originally drew them to New York City. Winter Session provides an array of courses enabling students to earn academic credit (major, min...
