Climate Change Institute

Paul Mayewski, director of the Climate Change Institute, took part in a ScienceWhys podcast with host Lisa Heldke, director of the Nobel Conference at Gustavus Adolphus College. The podcast poses questions at the confluence of science and ethics. Mayewski says that everybody wants to be healthy. If we had clean air and clean water, he says we “would be healthier, we would lower our health costs, we would be less stressed, we would be less frustrated, and we would have more sustainable jobs.”
