Less Talk, More Walk: Why Climate Change Demands Activism in the Academy

As climate scholars, it is our professional responsibility to engage in climate politics. First, we need to engage in radical scientific analysis: we must ask questions that get at the root of climate change. Second, we need to plant a flag: we must be explicit about what our findings indicate we should do. This should go further than laying out the options; we must indicate which among them is preferable and why. Third, we must engage broadly, both across disciplines and beyond the academy. Many will object to the notion of engaging publicly as advocates, but the climate crisis demands nothing less. Choosing not to have a view, in the name of preserving our expertise, is an abdication of our responsibility, as both scholars and teachers.

少说话,多走步:为什么气候变化需要学院的积极主义

作为气候学者,从事气候政治工作是我们的职业责任。首先,我们需要进行彻底的科学分析:我们必须提出气候变化根源的问题。第二,我们需要植入一个标志:我们必须明确我们的发现表明我们应该做的事情。这应该比列出选择方案更进一步;我们必须指出其中哪个更可取,以及为什么。第三,我们必须跨学科和超出学院范围广泛地参与。许多人会反对公开倡导倡导者的想法,但是气候危机的要求无非是。以保留我们的专业知识为名,选择不发表意见,这是我们作为学者和老师的责任的放弃。
