Great Regulars: Are we those Inventive People?

Or have we lost touch with our imaginations to the extent that the very phrase Imagining Climate Change only brings images of pictures of a panting, smoke-encircled Earth crayoned by children? If so, is that because our imaginations are so very badly crayoned, because they have never been educated beyond primary school, because Imagining as a way of knowing has long been disregarded by scientific rationalism, the only Respectable Way of Knowing anything in our current society?

from Luisetta Mudie: Clattery MacHinery on Poetry: Luisetta Mudie's Climate Change and the Poetic Imagination
