Recap: Yale For Humanity Illuminated

Climate Science for a Sustainable Future

Can we avoid the most catastrophic impacts of climate change? What roles can new technologies (or old forests) play in doing so? And is there any good news from the front lines of climate research? At the For Humanity Illuminated event on February 7, 2024, these were some of the questions that Yale researchers answered in front of a crowd of 200 members of the Yale community, who gathered at the Norton Museum of Art in West Palm Beach, Florida.

The event featured prominent experts on climate change and air pollution. They spoke about the urgent need to mobilize an effort to combat climate change, keeping the world from crossing the critical threshold of two degrees Celsius warmer than the pre-industrial average. Their promising research and that of their colleagues could lead the way toward a cooler world.
