The Value Perspective The Value Perspective with Steven Koonin
This week, we welcome Professor Steven Koonin to the Value Perspective podcast. Steve is a nuclear physicist by training and has a CV a mile long but highlights including being Undersecretary of Science during the first Obama administration, a professor at NYU School of Engineering and BP’s Chief Scientist. He is also the author of Unsettled: What Climate Science Tells Us, What It Doesn't, and Why It, a book that has provoked much debate since its publication in 2021. During the episode we discuss: how the world has changed since Steve was at BP 20 years ago; the difference between weather change and climate change; how Steve would tell Rishi Sunak if he was his adviser; science communication and the use of ‘red teaming’; and science-based targets for companies. Enjoy!
