About the Speech:

In his keynote address to the IIEA, Dr. Boussalis examined the persistence of climate change science denial in America – pushed most vociferously by conservative think tanks – and the ways in which it hinders the possibility for real climate change policy debate. As the US is approaching a pivotal Presidential election this year, the issue of climate change science denial is more relevant than ever.
