Description

Understand the complexities of one of the most difficult challenges facing humanity. This book from Routledge reviews the science behind climate change and examines why it remains such a difficult problem to solve. It treats climate change as a wicked problem, deeply connected to issues like population growth, environmental degradation, and rising social and economic inequality across the globe. Readers will explore the reasons behind the politicization of climate science and the polarization of public opinion. The text investigates why science is sometimes viewed as an ideology to be contested rather than a factual foundation. By examining how humans assess risk and why we often struggle to focus on future consequences, this book provides a deep look into the social and scientific barriers to progress. It is an essential resource for understanding the modern landscape of environmental and social issues.
