Capitalism vs. the Climate

This SPW requires some cooperation for completion, and with more cooperation, the more possible points.

To complete this assignment respond to the following prompts in a single post. Then, respond to any other students post (though, try to respond to those without any responses first, of course).

Prompts Choose 1:

– What, according to Klein is among the major reasons for climate change denial by Republicans and other conservatives? What is it that they fear about “the climate-change hoax?” What about this conservative story regarding climate change does Klein believe is correct? (Note: not all conservatives or Republicans deny climate change.)

– In the later portions of the essay (21ff) Klein references research that tries to understand why people may deny the realities laid out by science. What do you think of this explanation? What does this help Klein see as particularly dangerous about climate change denial (25)?
What are the concerns that Klein raises about the strategies of the major (large scale) environmental organizations in relation to this form of climate denial?

Prompts 2:
