Climate Forum: Global Climate Change and Why Local Action is Vital (March 2020)

Climate change is a global problem that requires a global solution.  But international deals like the Paris Agreement are ultimately only as good as the actions taken by local communities and the private sector.  This talk reviews the evolution of international climate negotiations over the past 30+ years, looks at why a global consensus has been so elusive, and points to the increasingly important roles played by state and local actors in addressing the global climate crisis.
