What is Vision Prize?

Vision Prize captures expert opinion on climate risks and solutions. Expert panelists provide their own opinions (Actual Answers), and also predict the views of their scientific colleagues (Expected Answers). This approach gives new insight into the level of scientific consensus on various issues, which in some cases may be just as important as knowing the majority view.

Three-year data collection for the Vision Prize project ended December 2014, and was run in collaboration with IOP | environmentalresearchweb (IOP). Additional data analysis and visualization is currently underway with research partners and collaborators, including IOP.

Panelists were pre-screened to ensure they have relevant expertise. h-scores provide an approximate measure of research impact of those giving each response. Charity prizes – our way of thanking panelists for their participation – were awarded for exceptional meta-knowledge.
