Link to Gina McCarthy interview.
How do you get these translations of climate science to people that aren’t seeking it out?
- This seems like a good question to ask because most of the population just sees headlines and does not dig into the science behind the headlines.
How do you make it relevant to people?
- It is hard to make climate science relevant to the general public, so I would have asked her what her strategies are to explain it to people with no background.
Economic reasons seam to be a big reason that people want to resist climate change measures. She mentioned that a low carbon future would be better economically, so I would ask her to expound on that.
- As the interview goes on she explains this a bit more, but I think this is a crucial point and is an opinion that isn't shared by every everyone, so I would be interested to here more about it.
If businesses have known for a long time that they need to shift towards environmentally products and practices, have these been implemented slowly because of the general public’s lack of belief?
- This is something I have always wondered personally. I specifically have always been fascinated in how long it will take for the general public to completely accept electric cars, if it is going to happen at all.
