Phoebe Barnard, PhD CEO, Stable Planet Alliance, Professor of Biodiversity and Environmental Futures, University of Washington
What if the world didn't have to be this way, or end this way? Are there any alternatives to scary apocalyptic climate futures? In addition to focusing on climate mitigation and climate adaptation, what if we could take our future into our hands and minimize climate turbulence and risk through climate restoration? The odds are indeed long, but the risks of not doing so are astronomical. Global change scientist, environmental futures professor and filmmaker, Dr Phoebe Barnard will tell us about the global documentary series she and John Bowey are are making, Back to Our Future: Climate Restoration and Survival.
