James Lovelock on Climate Change
- Synopsis
- Video recording of an interview with James Lovelock about his views on climate change just before the release of the report by the United Nation’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) on the science of global warming, the impact it will have, and what can be done about it. Lovelock is best known for proposing the Gaia hypothesis in the 1960s, which states that life on Earth functions as a single organism. 28 minutes.
With a contemporary insight and eloquence that belies his 88 years, Lovelock answers some of the trickiest questions regarding global warming, such as have we reached the tipping point? And not shying from controversy he dismisses alternative energy and throws his weight behind nuclear. - Language
