Is climate change real, is it serious, and is it caused by humans? If you ask someone those questions, a pattern will emerge. The degree to which someone is skeptical or accepting of human-caused climate change is most heavily influenced by race, politics, and religion. Dr. Robin Globus Veldman set out to explain why evangelical Christians are among the most persistent climate skeptics in western cultures in her book The Gospel of Climate Skepticism: Why Evangelical Christians Oppose Action on Climate Change. Enjoy this conversation as we discuss her work and her findings.
