Climate of dogma? Judith Curry, American climatologist

Many times throughout history, humanity has tried to solve problems in ways that have not only exacerbated the pre-existing challenges but also created much bigger ones. Take nuclear weapons, for example — born out of the need for security, they come with the risk of total annihilation. My guest today argues that our efforts to deal with climate change fall into a similar pattern, at times creating more harm than good. Why is it so difficult to prevent the treatment from becoming worse than the disease? To discuss this, Oksana is joined by Judith Curry, an American climatologist and Professor Emerita at the Georgia Institute of Technology.
