SUMMARY:Climate Obstruction: A Global Assessment
DESCRIPTION:Climate obstruction involves intentional actions and efforts to slow or block policies on climate change that are commensurate with the current scientific consensus of what is necessary to avoid dangerous human interference with the climate system. With thirty-one lead authors coordinating twelve teams of more than one hundred total authors\, this first-of-its-kind volume reviews obstruction efforts undertaken by fossil fuel industries\, utilities\, the transportation sector\, agribusinesses\, public relations firms\, and organizations on the political far right. \nThis assessment shows that as climate action becomes globalized\, efforts to obstruct it have become more deceptive\, widespread\, well-funded\, and dangerous. This seminar is a pre-launch seminar of the volume Climate Obstruction: A Global Assessment\, edited by J. Timmons Roberts\, Carlos R. S. Milani\, Jennifer Jacquet and Christian Downie\, and published by Oxford University Press (coming out in September 2025).
