This Is a Past Event

Join Harvard faculty, students, and fellow alumni for a cross-disciplinary conversation about climate change. Emerging science and on-the-ground evidence of climate tipping points and accelerating natural disasters call us to rapid and transformative responses. Are the pandemic and struggling economy a help or a hindrance to climate action and what are we learning from this historic moment? As a society and set of institutions and economies, will we rise to the challenges of a just transition?

Welcoming remarks by Aaron Bernstein, Interim Director, Center for Climate, Health, and the Global Environment (C-CHANGE) at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health
