The climate crisis confronts us with uncertainty and is negotiated through a host of speculative technical epistemologies and apparatuses. However, rather than resolving uncertainty, it is translated and reconfigured, and it reverberates across social contexts. The dominant impulse has been to double down on certainty. But what consequences do discourses of certainty have and how do we understand the ethical possibilities of the uncertain?
At a time of flourishing new and old climate scepticisms, a wildly interdisciplinary panel combining speakers from atmospheric science, social science and art will reflect on this question.
