Three Virginia Tech interdisciplinary graduate education programs (IGEPs) recently met in Torgerson Hall to discuss the documentary film, “Merchants of Doubt”. This discussion followed a visit from the book’s author, Dr. Naomi Oreskes, from Harvard University. Students and faculty from the VT SuN, Water INTERface, and Interfaces of Global Change IGEPs shared their thoughts and ideas about the role of science communication in addressing world climate change.
