Abstract
The geosciences play a role outside of the natural, research sciences as agents responding to geopolitical crises like climate change and corporate and military interests that seek strategic advantage in planetary repair and control. The notion of the neutrality of science has increasingly eroded with researchers more frequently becoming embroiled in public deliberation and policy. Geoscientists are being asked to project the future of physical earth systems as well as evaluate the performance of policies (Beck and Mahony 2018) contributing to solutions and providing metrics for “climate services” (Daly and Dilling 2019). How the story of the earth, its climate and ecology, are told, is developed in specific ways, evoking different kinds of value and purpose for different communities.
