BB: Climate Change Priorities

14/01/2023 @ 10:00 AM - 11:00 AM PST

Free

Last year President Biden sign into law the Inflation Reduction Act, which provides, at long last, hundred of billions dollars in climate change action funding. In view of this and other progress around the world, join us at the Science Circle to discuss which climate change initiatives should have priority. For example, should mitigation be prioritized over emissions reduction? What are the best ways to cope with events such as polar vortex, melting Greenland ice sheet, sea level rise, fires, and so on?
