16 October – “Climate and Energy Decision-Making – Getting to Yes on BU’s Climate Action Plan”

Date: 16 October 2017
Time: 12:00pm
Location: Baker 129 Conference Room
Speaker: Anthony Janetos
Topic: Climate and Energy Decision-Making – Getting to Yes on BU’s Climate Action Plan

Abstract: A University-wide Task Force was instituted a year ago to make recommendations to the BU Board of Trustees on a Climate Action Plan for the University.  This seminar will discuss both the substance of that plan, and the process used by the Task Force to gather support for the plan, even as its analysis continues.  The final response is not yet known.  But the recommendations are for ambitious action on emissions, and a prudent approach to increasing the resilience of the University to flooding and heat waves.
