Christopher Shaw on the social transformation needed to solve climate change
About this episode
Dr. Christopher Shaw is an independent climate communications expert. Chris was previously Head of Research at Climate Outreach, where among the reports he worked on is the IPCC handbook for climate scientists on how to communicate effectively.
Chris is also author of the book Liberalism and the Challenge of Climate Change. (London: Routledge 2023)
From the publisher's website:
"In this book Christopher Shaw analyses how liberalism has shaped our understanding of climate change and how liberalism is legitimated in the face of a crisis for which liberalism has no answers."
Chris spoke about his evolving views on the barriers to action on climate change with Helena Rambler, just after the conclusion of Climate Week in New York City.
