What Kaelin DeLong explains in this video is very valuable not specific to climate crisis. It is also applicable to pandemics and efforts for preparing pandemics in an inter- and trans-disciplinary way.
Why is embracing uncertainty a powerful tool to address complex societal issues, such as the climate crises? As Kaelin DeLong explains, while data and graphs provide valuable insights, they only tell part of the story. Embracing the diversity of emotions, values, and assumptions held by different stakeholder groups, along with the inherent uncertainty, is an important first step in any decision-making process. It allows us to recognize gaps and limitations in our understanding, which can pave the way for working together on more just and sustainable solutions for the climate crisis. 🌐 Let’s celebrate Earth Day today by encouraging dialogue, respecting disagreements, and fostering trust in science. 💚🌏 This video was produced during the Climateurope2 Festival.
