Daniel M. Kammen 考察了科學變革的步伐、持續創新和部署的問題,以及通過將氣候保護作為優先事項可以實現的巨大利益。 最引人注目的或許是可以通過地球可以承受的能源計劃來實現的一系列好處——社會公平、種族和性別包容性、文化多樣性和減貧。
本次活動是哈佛大學拉德克利夫高等研究院未發現科學系列講座。
Daniel M. Kammen examines the pace of scientific change, the problem of sustained innovation and deployment, and the tremendous array of benefits that could be realized by making climate protection the priority it must become. Most remarkable, perhaps, is the range of benefits—in social equity, ethnic and gender inclusivity, cultural diversity, and poverty alleviation—that can be realized through an energy plan Earth can live with.
This event is part of The Undiscovered Science Lecture Series at the Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study, Harvard University.
