The view from America: Who controls the conversation about the environment?

The view from America: Who controls the conversation about the environment?

Our thinking about the looming ecological catastrophe and its prevention is shaped, to a large extent, by eco-activists and... large corporations. Will the latter manage to reduce our concern for the environment to consumer choices? We invite you to a discussion on the American experience of treating the environment as a battlefield. We will talk about abuses of persuasion in this realm, such as greenwashing, in connection with Mads Ellesøe's films "The Campaign Against the Climate" and Werner Boote's "The Green Lie."
