Climate Systems Engineering

Reducing emissions through a switch to clean energy might not be enough to reverse the changes that have already happened to our climate. We may need to take more drastic steps. Like what? University Professor David Keith is leading a new Climate Systems Engineering initiative. Learn about the technologies that could be deployed—such as reducing the temperature of the earth with aerosols or pulling carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere—and the debate surrounding them. Keith has worked at the interface of climate science, technology and public policy for over three decades, and is at the forefront of efforts to advance the science and policy analysis of climate systems engineering.
Dinner will be served.
