Topics
Jon Stewart: 我回顾了每日秀多年来对气候变化的报道。美国众议院科学、空间和技术委员会的听证会,以及一些议员对气候变化科学的无知和否认,让我感到震惊。他们对气候变化的理解存在严重缺陷,并且受到利益集团的影响。他们提出的质疑,很多是基于对科学方法的误解和对负面结果的恐惧,这阻碍了他们采取行动。 Jordan Klepper: 特朗普政府对气候变化的否定和行动,以及试图掩盖相关数据,让我感到担忧。为了应对这一威胁,一个地下组织正在努力备份和保护这些宝贵的气候数据,他们冒着风险,将这些数据转移到安全的地方,以确保这些关键信息不会丢失。 Roy Wood Jr.: 人们难以应对气候变化,是因为我们进化出的思维方式更倾向于应对直接和可见的威胁,而气候变化是一个抽象和长期的威胁。我们需要找到方法,将气候变化的威胁转化为人们能够直观感受到的、迫在眉睫的危机,才能促使人们采取行动。 Trevor Noah: 极端寒冷天气并不能否定全球变暖的存在,两者是不同的概念。特朗普总统对极端天气的反应,再次体现了他对气候变化的否认态度。 Ronny Chieng: 我试图向特朗普总统解释极端寒冷天气和全球变暖的关系,并指出全球气温的上升趋势。但是,气候变化否认者往往拒绝接受科学证据,这使得沟通变得非常困难。
