Notes
1. In the USA, the religious, right-wing has pushed conservatism to become more and more extreme, enacting a ‘war on science’ (Mooney, Citation2005), especially since the last Bush administration in which scientific findings in reports to Congress were changed to undercut the preponderance of evidence that global warming is being caused by human activity. However, this sort of political connection is not mentioned in this volume and while Rogers correctly and clearly identifies the problem of communicating scientific findings to a largely geoscience-illiterate public in his essay on communication between climate change scientists’ findings and the public, he does not mention why this might be the case or refer to educational research on beliefs and conceptual change (e.g. Chinn & Brewer, Citation1993).
