We discuss Per Espen Stoknes What We Think About When We Try Not To Think About Global Warming. While evidence has accumulated about anthropogenic climate change, public concern has remained low. Other public policy issues are more pressing--even leaving aside those who could be called climate change deniers. Per discusses the psychology behind our unwillingness to face up to the changing climate, and proposes ways we can change public assessment of the risks posed by climate change.
