A "Manhattan Project" for Climate Change?
A "Manhattan Project" for Climate Change?
The authors, Chi-Jen Yang and Michael Oppenheimer, argue that using the symbolism of the Manhattan Project to take on global warming might make sense as a rallying point, but good politics is not equivalent to wise policy. Such a metaphoric alternative to the Kyoto Protocol is likely to deflect policymakers in counterproductive directions. Adopting a Kyoto-style approach is a more effective way to develop climate-friendly technologies.
