A controversial play — and what it taught me about the psychology of climate | David Finnigan
摘要
David Finnegan, a playwright, discusses his controversial play "Kill Climate Deniers" and his journey to understand climate deniers. He learns that climate deniers accept the science but reject it because they understand the consequences. Finnegan concludes that people who accept the science but do not act on it are, in a sense, soft deniers.
