Climate Science and Policy at a Crossroads - Responding to Challenges to the Endangerment Finding

Join this hybrid lecture to explore the EPA's endangerment finding, examine the Trump Administration's attempts to repeal it, and discover how scientists advocate for climate science in policy-making. Learn from four distinguished Rutgers professors who will discuss the intersection of climate science and environmental policy, including legal frameworks, scientific evidence, public perception, and advocacy strategies. Gain insights into how climate researchers respond to political challenges and work to maintain scientific integrity in policy decisions. The presentation covers the regulatory foundations of climate action, the role of scientific consensus in policy development, and effective approaches for communicating climate science to policymakers and the public.
