🚨 NEW PAPER ALERT 🚨

In our new paper, we develop the concept of ‘institutional epistemology’ to describe the knowledge practices of expert organisations - based on a comparison of @IPCC_CH and @IPBES but applicable more broadly. A short thread /1

Climate change is likely to affect almost every area of our lives, but how did we get to this point? When and why did we first take notice of climate change? And why has climate change evaded our collective attention and action for so long? Have a listen!
