Why trust science?
Event Information
About this Event
Science is continually changing with new findings and discoveries. When people reject these findings, we end up in a position where we can’t make intelligent decisions about important matters.
Join Naomi Oreskes as she explores how the trustworthiness of scientific claims derives from the rigorous vetting they go through.
In this talk, Naomi discusses how people need a more realistic view of science’s strengths and weaknesses, so when mistakes do inevitably happen, we don’t discredit science completely.
