Summary:

During this confusing time of climate skeptics and extinction rebellion suppporters, sometimes we can take a “long view” and see how society dealt with similar challenges. The talk draws on parallels between our present predicament and that of 200 years’ earlier when a scientist hypothesise something invisible was killing whole communities.
