Michael Quirke of Climate Change National Forum chats with Ben Franta, PhD candidate in Applied Physics at Harvard and board member of Divest Harvard, and Geoffrey Supran, MIT Energy Fellow and member of Fossil Free MIT, about the divestment movement that has gripped many of the nation's campuses this spring. What are the goals of this movement to get organizations, particularly universities, to divest their assets in fossil fuel companies? What are the limitations of the movement? And what of the oft-heard criticisms over the ...
An appeal to corporations and foundations to help CCNF advance climate literacy on a national scale, establish a new brand and new standard of climate journalism, and facilitate an unprecedented national dialogue and bipartisan debate based on sound science and shared values regarding what can or should be done as a nation. We are looking for five entities to help CCNF, and our academic partners, register a national impact before COP 21. It can be done. Help us make it so!
"The climate is way too important to leave to the environmental left." Is that something you usually hear from a conservative American these days? That's what we hear from Alex Bozmoski, Strategic Development Director of RepublicanEN.org, in this chat with Michael Quirke, Executive Director of CCNF. The conversation focuses on what the nation can or should do about climate change. It's definitely the most entertaining interview of the Earth Day Texas series, which commemorates the discussion and debate on what can or should be done about climate change as a nation on ClimateChangeNationalForum.org.
What happens if we don't bother mitigating (reducing) carbon emissions any further? What are the implications of our decision to mitigate (or not) in the short-run, medium-term, and long-run? What can we affect with substantial mitigation? In this virtual session, CCNF focuses on the science of climate change and ocean acidification. We hear from Dr. John Nielsen-Gammon—Regents Prof. of Atmospheric Sciences at Texas A&M University and the Texas State Climatologist; Dr. Mauri Pelto—Glaciologist and Professor of Environmental Science at Nichols College; and Dr. Will Howard—Research Scientist at the University of Melbourne School of Earth Sciences and Deputy Chair of the Australian National Committee for Antarctic Research.
