Reid Allen Bryson (1920–2008) was a forceful orator who consistently fought against institutional pressures to get his messages out to the public. In the 1960s, Bryson was a leader in the wider academic turn toward politically charged interdisciplinarianism. To the dismay of many of his colleagues, he publicly made climatological prognoses in the 1970s, becoming a significant figure in the media landscape. He was not swayed by the arguments for global warming, even as the framing became the recognized face of climate change in the late 1980s. By examining the controversies that Bryson instigated and the currents that he swam against, we can see the wider community crystallizing and promoting positions that may have previously gone unstated. In addition, Bryson's personal contribution to the rise of climate discourse has been underexplored in the historical literature. Bryson was instrumental in bringing climate onto the political radar during the World Food Crisis of 1973, shocking both the US and Canadian political establishments into paying more attention to the issue. Bryson's narrative linking climate change to both food supply and a series of climate anomalies in the 1970s remained predominant in the first World Climate Conference of 1979. Bryson also helped break a seal on climatologists speaking directly to the media, leading to unprecedented climate discourse in the 1970s and giving climate change a springboard to become one of the defining issues of the 21st century.

Reid Bryson:危机气候学家

里德·艾伦·布赖森 (Reid Allen Bryson, 1920-2008) 是一位强有力的演说家,他始终与机构压力作斗争,将他的信息传达给公众。在 1960 年代,布赖森是更广泛的学术转向充满政治色彩的跨学科主义的领导者。令他的许多同事感到沮丧的是,他在 1970 年代公开做出气候预测,成为媒体领域的重要人物。他并没有被全球变暖的论点所动摇,即使框架在 1980 年代后期成为公认的气候变化面孔。通过研究布赖森煽动的争议和他所反对的潮流,我们可以看到更广泛的社区正在明确和促进以前可能未说明的立场。此外,布赖森 他个人对气候话语兴起的贡献在历史文献中未被充分探索。在 1973 年世界粮食危机期间,布赖森在将气候问题带入政治雷达方面发挥了重要作用,震惊了美国和加拿大的政治机构,使其更加关注这一问题。布赖森将气候变化与 1970 年代的粮食供应和一系列气候异常联系起来的叙述在 1979 年的第一届世界气候大会上仍然占主导地位。布赖森还帮助打破了气候学家直接与媒体交谈的封印,导致了史无前例的气候讨论。 1970 年代,并为气候变化提供了一个跳板,成为 21 世纪的决定性问题之一。在 1973 年世界粮食危机期间,布赖森在将气候问题带入政治雷达方面发挥了重要作用,震惊了美国和加拿大的政治机构,使其更加关注这一问题。布赖森将气候变化与 1970 年代的粮食供应和一系列气候异常联系起来的叙述在 1979 年的第一届世界气候大会上仍然占主导地位。布赖森还帮助打破了气候学家直接与媒体交谈的封印,导致了史无前例的气候讨论。 1970 年代,并为气候变化提供了一个跳板,成为 21 世纪的决定性问题之一。在 1973 年世界粮食危机期间,布赖森在将气候问题带入政治雷达方面发挥了重要作用,震惊了美国和加拿大的政治机构,使其更加关注这一问题。布赖森将气候变化与 1970 年代的粮食供应和一系列气候异常联系起来的叙述在 1979 年的第一届世界气候大会上仍然占主导地位。布赖森还帮助打破了气候学家直接与媒体交谈的封印,导致了史无前例的气候讨论。 1970 年代,并为气候变化提供了一个跳板,成为 21 世纪的决定性问题之一。
