https://ClimateMatters.TV - James Hansen, Pam Peterson, and Philip Duffy
join us to discuss how the hesitancy among scientists to express the
gravity of our situation is a major block to our understanding and
response to climate change, The reticence arises from political
pressure, institutional conservatism, so-called 'objectivity', aversion
to controversy, etc.  But when the data and the conclusions it leads to
are alarming, isn't it imperative that the alarm be transmitted
publicly? Here is another facet of society's apparent inability to
assess and respond appropriately to the present immense, existential
threat of climate change.
