Prof. Aviva Chomsky will be giving a lecture entitled “Colonialism and Climate Crisis” based on her new book Is Science Enough? Forty Critical Questions.
Despite decades of international meetings, policy proposals, and scientific and technological advances, we can’t seem to do what we most need to do: lower the greenhouse gas emissions that are causing the climate catastrophe. Science and technology alone can’t address the social and economic causes of the crisis. Prof. Chomsky argues that we must place global climate justice at the center of our project of lowering emissions and shifting to an economy based on the common good and human survival within the planet's limits.
Prof. Chomsky will be signing her new book after the talk.
