Panel Discussions
What do an astronaut, marine ecologist, and geoscientist all have in common when it comes to climate resilience? Perspective….to uncover the fact and fiction of climate change from the expanse of earth’s orbit, to the land, and into the depths of the oceans. This panel will explore understanding innovations in climate technology as a whole problem to better position us to be resilient.
The pandemic showed us that the most effective scientific solutions—even that ones that seem highly desirable—run into barriers at implementation. Innovations in climate resilience often face similar challenges: politicization, inequitable access, institutional distrust, misinformation, inadequate infrastructure, short-term thinking, and so on. What would it take, then, to prioritize preventative technologies and policies instead of reacting to a cascade of climate crises? How can climate solutions at the federal level consider local needs, resources, and expertise more deliberately? Who bears the onus of resilience, and how can both government and industry make it easier for individual people and communities to adapt? And how can leaders in climate resilience promote solutions that integrate “mitigation” with “adaptation,” rather than framing those strategies in conflict with one another?
