SUMMARY:The Climate Misinformation Campaign that Confused America
CATEGORIES:
DESCRIPTION:\nThe Humphrey Institute&rsquo\;s Center for Science\,  Technology\, and Public  Policy will host a discussion on the debate over climate  change at 6  p.m. on Wednesday\, August 11\, in Cowles Auditorium at the Humphrey   Center. Senior Fellow Steve Kelley will host Will Steger\, Polar Explorer  and  Founder of the Will Steger Foundation\, and feature Dr. Naomi  Oreskes\, author of Merchants of Doubt. According to a  recent  study from the Yale Project on Climate Change\, 40% of Americans believe   there is major scientific disagreement as to whether global warming is  real\,  however\, the vast majority of climate scientists fully believe in  the  phenomenon of climate change. Oreskes\, a science historian  explains what&ndash\;or  who&ndash\;is to blame for this misinformation conundrum.</p>\n\nThe event is free and open  to the public. Guests who  would like to meet Dr. Oreskes are welcome to  purchase a ticket to a  reception hosted by the Will Steger Foundation\, which  will be held  prior to the discussion.
