MEER Podcast - Kyle Kimball
Kyle Kimball returns to MEER 3 years after his talk “Faster Than Expected: The IPCC’s Role In Exacerbating Climate Change”.
In that talk he presented evidence indicating that the IPCC plays a significant role in downplaying the impacts of runaway climate change, a role which serves to manufacture consent for a “do nothing” approach by state governments and the corporations controlling them.
Kyle has a BA in EU and International Law from Tallinn University of technology and an LLM in International Migration and Refugee Law from Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam. He now lives in Olympia, Washington where he serves the public working in state government.
