U2D#5- homework

Due: 17th May

Next lecture, you are going to engage in the 3rd role-play. The question of that role-play is: „Given the inherent uncertainties of climate models, should climate mitigation and adaptation policy rely on the models?“ The contributing roles are: scientist I, scientist II, politician I and politician II. Please prepare for the role-play as described below:

  1. Define your role more concretely and prepare a sign stating your definition. Bring this to the role-play.
  2. Prepare the arguments for your role in the role-play regarding the question (make sure to understand your role’s position to the question, institutional settings and so on…) in your role-group.
  3. Decide upon the tasks: main speaker and blogger. Keep in mind that all of you should contribute to the discussion and also take notes.

Further, post a blog entry about role-play 2 (words>400, short title). Explain your arguments, show differences, similarities, difficulties or processes you experienced… (This entry counts into the blog count.) For more details on the format, see pictures below.

If you run into any problems, please contact Maike Scheffold (maike.scheffold@uni-hamburg.de) by 15th May.
