Historicizing Climate Intervention Reihe: Perspektiven der Moderne Referent/in:Prof. Dr. James FlemingInhalt: Referent James R. Fleming, Colby College Waterville (Maine) Abstract This presentation traces historical pathways leading to the contemporary grand challenge of climate change. It offers a critique of “barking mad”technological fixes that seek to intervene in and control climate and unpacks the limitations of an “interventionist” Anthropocene – the proposed, but sorely under-conceptualized new era that, in its reductionism, determinism and bald anthropocentrism, is profoundly disturbing. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "geoengineering" group.
