Forging Climate Solutions: How to accelerate action across America

Tuesday, 19 March

7:15 am - 8:20 am (CST) / 19/mar/2024 12:15 pm - 19/mar/2024 01:20 pm

As the United States becomes even more politically polarized, what happens to climate policy? This panel will consider the key findings from a large, bipartisan consensus report Forging Climate Solutions: How to Accelerate Action Across America by the Commission on Accelerating Climate Action of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. The report, which reflects views from the arts and sciences, faith communities, environmental justice, youth activism, indigenous communities and public health, outlines a strategy for building and enhancing action on climate change even as American politics grow more fractious. Central to this action is a fair bargain to deploy green infrastructure equitably. How can siting and investment in infrastructure be improved? How can needed funding for innovation and deployment of new technologies be sustained?
