Short biography
I'm a volunteer with Skeptical Science, an international non-profit science education organization dedicated to increasing public understanding of climate change. Our mission is to counter false and misleading information that harms our species’ ability to deal with climate change caused by excessive anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions. We do this by presenting peer-reviewed science and explaining the techniques of climate science denial, discourses of climate delay, and climate solutions denial. I’m particularly interested in detecting and deconstructing misinformation about scientific topics such as climate change or biodiversity loss, the effective strategies we can use to counter it, and how we can deploy those strategies in the real world.
