CLIMATE BRIDGE: Perspectives for International Collaboration on Climate Change in the Current Political Climate

Panel Discussion and Book Presentation, Reception to Follow

Since the 2021 German-US conference CLIMATE BRIDGE, the political leadership of both countries changed. How do the new governments impact climate politics? How do politics affect scientific and professional cooperation between Germany and the U.S.?

Climate change is creating new challenges for spatial and environmental planning on both sides of the Atlantic. Planning and policy must balance moderating climate change impact from rising temperatures, extreme precipitation, and sea level rise with social equity and environmental justice. Climate Bridge compares New Jersey and the German Ruhr region to build an international perspective on how to enact climate action at the government-public interface.

Join us for a panel discussion and book presentation to learn more. This event is free of cost and open to the public.
