How to Think About Consensus

23 Sep

A couple months ago, a young researcher named Emily Harari reached out to me about my views about the scientific consensus on climate change. She raised some interesting questions I hadn’t commented publicly on, so I agreed to do the interview if we could share it with my listeners.

This week’s Power Hour features that interview.

Some of the topics we cover are:

– The legitimate and illegitimate view of consensus
– How to learn the actual state of consensus
– The National Climate Assessment
– How consensus statements often misrepresent the state of consensus
– The role of the media in distorting science
– How transparent should consensus discussions be
– The obligation of scientists to stand up to false consensus statements
