UCL Uncovering Politics

Climate change is perhaps the greatest challenge facing humans today. Yet politics appears to be failing to deliver the required response. 

Students of politics are therefore conducting a wealth of research to understand what’s happening and what could be done better. But is that research actually doing any good? Is it contributing to better outcomes?

To explore this topic, UCL Uncovering Politics is joined by Dr Fergus Green, Lecturer in Political Theory and Public Policy in the UCL Department of Political Science.

Mentioned in this episode:

• F. Green., & I. Robeyns., 'On the Merits and Limits of Nationalising the Fossil Fuel Industry', Royal Institute of Philosophy Supplements
• F. Green., & E. Brandstedt., 'Engaged Climate Ethics', The Journal of Political Philosophy
• Fergus and Ingrid will be speaking about their paper tonight (Thursday 19 May), at Foyles on Charing Cross Road, London. You can get a free ticket to this event here.
