Join in on the next Carbon Talks public dialogue at SFU:
At COP21 last December, the Paris Agreement was unanimously adopted and charted a new course in the global response to climate change. In Marrakech this November, world governments came together for the first time since Paris for COP22 to discuss the implementation of the Paris Agreement. Ministers and civil society met against the backdrop of fresh evidence that 2016 will be the warmest on record and with a new administration in Washington that could reverse American support for the Paris Agreement.
So what happened at COP22? What was (and wasn’t) agreed to, and what does that mean for progress on climate change? We hear from two experts who were deeply involved at this year’s COP—Tzeporah Berman and Jennifer Allan.
When: Friday, December 9 from 12:30-1:30pm
Where: Room 7000, SFU Harbour Centre at 515 West Hastings Street, Vancouver
