Abstract

STS research on climate change seeks to show the historic and contemporary influences on ways of knowing climate change, and how these then shape possible solutions. STS analysis also considers ways to enhance climate science and policy by making these influences more transparent, inclusive, and open to governance. This summary focuses especially on the significance of historic framings and knowledge infrastructures that control how we know climate change; the co-production of ideas about climate risk and adaptation; the tacit social values in projections about climate change; and opportunities for democratizing climate science and expert organizations.
