Mike Hulme is one of the most distinctive and recognisable voices speaking internationally about climate change in the academy, in public and in the media. This collection of his most popular, prominent and controversial articles, essays, speeches, interviews and reviews dating back to the late 1980s reveal an intellectual and personal journey of observation, investigation and reflection on an increasingly complex phenomenon and trace how Hulme has arrived at his current position. The material in Exploring Climate Change in Science and Society engages with science, politics, policy, media, ethics, sociology, religion and philosophy. The collection shows the many different ways in which it is necessary to approach the idea of climate change to interpret and make sense of the divergent and discordant voices proclaiming it in the public sphere.
