Segment 3: Highlighting Climate Solutions that Can Be Implemented on a Global Scale

About this session

This segment will be focused on technologies that can help the world rise to the challenge on climate change. In addition to giving audiences hope that it is possible to adequately mitigate climate change, it may motivate them to support bold action in order to do so. There are a wide range of solutions that mitigate or adapt to climate change (Climate Solutions) that can be implemented on a global scale. This set of presentations will only focus on Climate Solutions that mitigate climate change.
