The next decade of climate action will be pivotal to reshape the rapidly evolving global landscape in climate and environmental policy. Moderated by Anne Thompson, NBC News’ Chief Environmental Affairs Correspondent, this panel brings together experts to explore the tools beyond government regulation that can drive meaningful change — from economic incentives and education to grassroots activism and corporate innovation. They’ll also discuss how universities, NGOs, and businesses can effectively work together towards long-term impact and the role that students can play in collective action. Join Cornell University for a forward-looking conversation on the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead in the collective effort for a sustainable future.
