SAGES’19 Global Climate Challenges for a Blue Green Economy: scientific evidence; its relevance; societal solutions.
November 27, 2019 @ 8:00 am - November 28, 2019 @ 5:00 pm
Practical solutions to challenges posed by global anthropogenic climate change are non-global: in national and regional regulatory frameworks, in devolved implementation of policy, in behavioural acceptance and desire for change, and in process-level understanding underpinning systems science research.
Scotland is at the forefront of Climate Planning, with world-leading aspirations to shape a new way of living in the face of high-paced environmental change: land use for food and carbon stabilization, fresh water for energy and life, marine environment for energy and food. Aspirational plans need practical working solutions, which need underpinning evidence.
