Denial of Climate and Environmental Science: An Analysis of the Literature from 1990 To 2015

Delilah David

Scientific results denial is neither a novel nor unstudied occurrence. But the research on denial hasn’t been thoroughly compiled and examined in the field of environmental science and policy. The goal of this article is to both highlight research gaps and facilitate learning about the issue by reviewing 161 scientific articles on environmental and climate science denial that have been published in peer-reviewed international journals over the past 25 years. Such information is required for the challenge of effectively responding to science denial in order to stop its influence on environmental policy making, which is becoming an increasingly crucial undertaking. Denial is by far the topic that has received the greatest research attention, according to the review, which is based on publications from the databases Web of Science, Scopus, and Philosopher’s Index.
