<h2><strong>Naomi
Oreskes: Can Science
Be Saved?</strong></h2>
<p>At a time when an
alarming number of
Americans are
demonizing scientists,
concocting conspiracy
theories, and actively
resisting even the
most common-sense
public health
measures, it is easy
to conclude that
science is in crisis.
Is it time to panic?</p>
<p>Not so fast. <strong>Thursday,
October 28 at 7:00pm
ET</strong>, on the
next Skeptical
Inquirer Presents live
online event,
world-renowned author,
geologist, and
historian Naomi
Oreskes will show that
the weight of evidence
suggests that the
scientific enterprise
in America is alive
and well … and
thriving!</p>

<p>What are the social
and psychological
drivers of the
public’s mistrust of
science? How can
deniers be convinced
otherwise? How do we
evaluate the role of
facts, of political
affinity, and of
personal identity in
the rejection of
scientific advice?</p>
<p>Most people who
reject science won’t
be persuaded with more
technical facts. They
deny scientific
findings because they
don’t like their
implications—what
Oreskes terms
“implicatory denial.”
But addressing those
perceived
implications—by
answering concerns and
calming fears—can help
us to make progress.
This holds true in a
range of domains, from
COVID-19 denial to
climate change.</p>
