| Résumé: | Outlining the characteristics of wicked and super-wicked problems, climate change is considered as a global super-wicked problem that is primarily about the future. Being global- and future-oriented makes climate change something we have to learn to live with but cannot expect to solve. Because the Institute on Religion in an Age of Science (IRAS) is a multidisciplinary society that yokes the natural and social sciences with values, it is in a position to explore strategies for living with climate changeexemplified by the articles in this section. Finally, asking who/what is in charge, it is suggested that in a dynamically interrelated and evolving world no one is. It is important to distinguish between good that is already created and the creative interactions that give rise to new good. In order to live with climate change, our primary orientation should be to live with the creativity that has created and continues to create our life on Planet Earthsince we are not able to know what the future holds. |
