Climate change - the challenge of translating scientific knowledge into action
2011-07-08
NIBR researcher Jon Naustdalslid's new paper about climate change has been published in International Journal of Sustainable Development & World Ecology.
In spite of solid scientific evidence that anthropogenic climate change will affect the conditions for life on earth, little climate action is taking place, writes NIBR researcher Jon Naustdalslid in his paper "Climate change - the challenge of translating scientific knowledge into action". 
The main message in the paper published in "International Journal of Sustainable Development & World Ecology" is that lack of climate action has to do with the ways in which climate change interlinks with society.Unlike "traditional" environmental problems, "modern" environmental problems are "internal" to society and are "societal" problems as much as they are environmental problems.
