Understanding Climate Change

August 12, 2023 @ 6:00 pm - 8:30 pm PDT

Free

Hosted by the Values Advocacy Council in collaboration with IPS, Dr. E. Calvin Beisner, President of the Cornwall Alliance for the Stewardship of Creation, will give a talk titled, “Understanding Climate Change: Combining the Insights of Biblical Worldview, Theology, and Ethics with Science, Economics, and Politics.”

In his talk, Dr. Beisner will address these and other questions:

  • What’s really behind climate-change catastrophism? Sound science, pseudo-religious culture, or something else?
  • Is global warming real, manmade, unprecedented, and an existential threat? How can we know?
  • Why do global elites demand that everyone forfeit abundant, affordable, reliable energy from hydrocarbons (“fossil fuels”) for more expensive, less reliable energy from wind, solar, and biofuels?
  • What are “carbon colonialism” and “Green imperialism”— and how do they impact the global poor?
  • How can Biblical worldview, theology, and ethics, combined with excellent science and economics, guide Christians to promote policies at home and abroad that speed rather than impede the conquest of poverty?
