Michael King Memorial Lecture: science and doubt
July 20, 2011, 7:06 p.m.
"Doubt is our product," ran the infamous memo written by one tobacco industry executive in 1969, "since it is the best means of competing with the 'body of fact' that exists in the minds of the general public." There's no denying "doubt" is crucial to science and drives it forward, but it also makes science, and scientists, vulnerable to misrepresentation, according to Naomi Oreskes, Professor of History and Science Studies at the University of California, San Diego. Oreskes co-wrote Merchants of Doubt with Erik Conway: an important and absorbing history of a group of high-level US scientists and advisers with deep connections in politics and industry. The same individuals surface repeatedly: claiming that the science of global warming is ânot settledâ, denying the truth of studies linking smoking to lung cancer, coal smoke to acid rain, and CFCs to the ozone hole. Naomi Oreskes gave the Michael King Memorial Lecture, with an introduction by the Science Editor of the New York Times Barbara Strauch.

Social Responsibility With Style: Natalia Allen
July 19, 2011, 11:32 p.m.
What are you wearing right now? Tube socks from China? A Patagonia fleece? A pair of pants made from hemp? Most people probably donât think that much about the social and environmental impact of our clothing choices. But our guest this week on Sea Change Radio, Natalia Allen, believes that you donât have to be wearing a tee-shirt with a slogan to make a statement with your clothes. Sheâs been called an âconscientious fashionistaâ who not only promotes more responsible consumer behavior, encouraging us all to think about the environmental and human costs of cheap clothing and textiles, sheâs actually producing clothing and accessories that give consumers a stylish set of alternatives. Sea Change Radio host Alex Wise talks with Natalia Allen about making fashion more sustainable, and sustainability more fashionable.
