OER Project Presents: David Wallace-Wells
May 29, 2024 4 to 5:30 p.m. PT / 7 to 8:30 p.m. ET
The future is being transformed by climate change faster and more dramatically than we realized. Politics, tech, business—even our sense of human rights—will all be changed by this massive force. But how? To what degree? In his critically-hailed instant New York Times bestseller, The Uninhabitable Earth, David Wallace-Wells tells the epic story of our time. His urgent talks ask key questions for securing our future, showing us how to remain optimistic in the face of climate uncertainty, while sharing relevant anecdotes that will help address student anxiety and encourage them to take action.
Plus: 250 randomly-selected attendees will receive a free digital copy of The Uninhabitable Earth!
