1. Climate Uncertainty And Risk
The book contends that substantial and persistent uncertainties in climate science—and limits in models, observations, and understanding of natural variability—complicate definitive projections and policy prescriptions; it argues for treating climate change as a risk-management problem that favors robust, flexible, and adaptive strategies (including resilience and targeted adaptation) over one-size-fits-all mitigation mandates, calls for clearer separation of scientific assessment from advocacy, and urges transparent communication of uncertainties and tail risks so decisionmakers can weigh tradeoffs and prepare for a range of plausible futures.
