Democracy is said to be myopic: unable to deal effectively with complex, long-term issues. The apparent inability of democracies to mitigate (and adapt) to climate change has led to a rise of anti-democratic sentiments, particularly from within the science community. This panel asks whether democracy is necessarily myopic and whether democratic institutions can be designed to respond more effectively to climate change. Papers explore the potential of different democratic theories and the design of democratic institutions to mitigate and adapt to climate change.
