Developing and deploying new technologies will be key to decoupling the dramatic improvements of the past century in human material well-being from their environmental impacts. Developing and deploying sustainability technologies at scale is a complex social, political, and engineering challenge.
Please join us for an in-person workshop that will bring together North American thought leaders working on the social-science aspects of this challenge.
This event is co-sponsored by the Center for Creative Climate Communication and Behavior Change (C3BC) and the CIRES Center for Social and Environmental Futures (C-SEF).
Everyone is welcome. Registration for Eventbrite tickets is free. Coffee and cookies will be provided throughout the day.
