While the public now grasps the serious threat of global warming, a clear path forward remains elusive. Drawing from his book, *Under the Influence: Putting Peer Pressure to Work*, Robert Frank proposes that leveraging behavioral contagion can make addressing climate change less daunting than many believe.
Robert H. Frank is the Henrietta Johnson Louis Professor of Management and Professor of Economics at Cornell's Johnson Graduate School of Management. He previously wrote the "Economic View" column for *The New York Times*.

SuperScientist James Hansen is engaging with the International Court of Justice (World Court) on the critical issue of climate change.
His participation underscores the significant scientific and legal considerations now being brought before the world's highest court.
At UNFCCC COP25 on December 4, 2019, C2G and leading experts called for urgent global discussions to address governance gaps in CO2 removal.
Claire Fyson, a Research Analyst at Climate Analytics and co-author of "Governing Large-scale Carbon Dioxide Removal: Are We Ready?", highlighted specific governance challenges related to large-scale CO2 removal, using Bio-energy with carbon capture and storage (BECCS) as an example.
Join us for an online talk with acclaimed environmental journalist Eugene Linden, author of nine non-fiction books. He will discuss his new book, *Fire and Flood*, which examines how business interests have historically obscured scientific warnings and hindered climate action. Linden, whose *Winds of Change* won the Grantham Prize, previously covered environmental issues for *Time*.
In *Fire and Flood*, Linden reveals how big money prioritizes short-term profits over long-term threats. He details the insurance industry's dramatic shift, now retreating from high-risk regions like Florida and California due to unmanageable fire and flood risks. This signals a broader business awakening to the urgent need for rapid climate action as long-term consequences become immediate.
Nii Gaani Aki Inini (Leading Earth Man) – Dave Courchene, from the Anishinabe Nation, Eagle Clan, presented on "Indigenous Values on Climate Change."
This presentation occurred at the One Basin One Governance (Water is Sacred) Conference on September 18, 2019, held at the Victoria Inn, Winnipeg.
Stark global temperature rise predictions and the urgent need for climate action are taking an immense emotional and psychological toll on scientists. Inspired by The Guardian's "Hopeless and Broken: Climate Scientists Despair," climate attorney Raya Salter and IPCC Lead Author Dr. Ruth Cerezo Mota discuss their personal experiences with this despair.
Dr. Cerezo Mota, a climatologist with over 15 years in climate modeling, shares her work's real-world impacts and the challenges of political resistance, funding, and public apathy. Despite these hurdles, her motivation fuels vital research.
