Climate change Is not like most other environmental issues. It’s not about “saving the Earth.” It’s about coping with change and learning to live in a greenhouse world. Even if all greenhouse gas emissions were instantly to cease, it would take more than a millennium for the Earth’s climate to return to its previous state. Professor Dale Jamieson joins us for a Dialogue to reflect on the following questions: What has gone wrong? What can we learn from our mistkaes? Can anything be done to avoid dangerous change? How should ´I´ live in a change world?
