Jacob Nordangård: The Capture of Academia
In his recent presentation The Capture of Academia – The Case of Climate Change, for the Omniwar Symposium, Swedish researcher Jacob Nordangård argues that the rise of anthropogenic global warming as the dominant explanation for climate change, was shaped by influential philanthropic foundations, research institutions and political networks.
Roger Pielke Jr.: A Report from the Netherlands
