Episode 735: SCIENCE UNDER SIEGE-MICHAEL MANN (Climate) & PETER HOTEZ (Pandemics, Vaccines)

from Free Forum with Terrence McNally · host Terrence McNally

Climate scientist MICHAEL MANN (The New Climate War) has been a target of threatening abuse ever since he led the team that produced the “hockey stick graph” making clear the extreme rise in temperatures since the Industrial Revolution. PETER HOTEZ (Vaccines Did Not Cause Rachel's Autism) has likewise been targeted since his highly visible role in vaccine development and public heath communication during the Covid 19 pandemic. Together they’ve written SCIENCE UNDER SIEGE: How to Fight the Five Most Powerful Forces That Threaten Our World, in which they name those forces - plutocrats, professionals, petro-states, propagandists, and the press; and offer a path to repel their attacks so that we may effectively confront critical challenges.
