This conversation revisits the original impetus behind large-scale citizen participation efforts such as the World Wide Views (WWViews) consultations: to close the democratic gap in global climate negotiations. These efforts were grounded in a theory of change that prioritized democratic legitimacy and durable collective solutions, even at the expense of speed.
Explore interactive and 3D exhibits at the Spring 2026 History Pop-Up Museum, organized by the College of Integrative Sciences and Arts’s history students under the guidance of Teaching Professor Valerie Adams.
Generative AI tools are increasingly being used to expand access to health care and to scale our capacity to develop data-driven solutions to climate crises. As these tools proliferate, it is vital that we understand the impacts they have on both human and planetary health.
It is remarkable that a single physics experiment can reveal “metaphysical” facts; that is, facts about the fundamental nature of existence. I am talking about Bell experiments, the subject of the 2022 Nobel Prize in physics, based on Bell’s 1964 theorem. These falsify not a particular theory, but all theories which satisfy a set of natural metaphysical assumptions. In recent years, new theorems along these lines have been devised, and I will talk about one by myself and co-workers that combines Bell’s 1964 idea with those of two other scientists of roughly the same era.
