Aivar Usk: Climate science needs facts to replace politics

In Postimees opinion section's web show "Principles and State," host Veiko Lukmann discusses with authors of Principles Chamber reports how to improve governance in Estonia. In this episode, Aivar Usk argues that climate science should replace political pressure and fear-based communication with a fact-based approach.

In Postimees opinion section and Postimees TV's web show "Principles and State," the host Veiko Lukmann and authors of Principles Chamber reports meet every Wednesday to discuss how to make governance in Estonia more efficient and transparent.

In this episode, Aivar Usk takes the floor, arguing that it is time for the field of climate science to replace political pressure and fear-based communication with a balanced fact-based approach. In his view, climate debate currently suffers from ideological overload, which hinders rather than promotes the substantive search for solutions.

An accompanying written opinion piece will also appear in Focus under "Principles and State," published on Wednesdays.
