Climate change and the rapidly growing climate emergency represent arguably the biggest challenge to human society as we look beyond the COVID-19 pandemic. It is our duty as academics and scientists to address this crisis with an all-hands-on-deck approach.The Decarbonization, Climate Resilience and Justice Network focuses on the theme of “Climate Justice” as it applies to governments and societies grappling with the dual mandate of building resilience to climate change and decarbonizing their economies. Expanding on the successful and productive “Columbia Interdisciplinary Research on Climate” (CIRC) workshop, this Network brings together an interdisciplinary group of scholars who seek to conduct cutting-edge research and build innovative curricula on climate-related topics that speak to the theme of climate justice. This core group draws from a range of disciplines, departments, and units at Columbia University, serving as a discussion and learning platform for both network members and other interested students, postdocs and faculty across CU to connect and work on topics related to “Decarbonization, Climate Resilience and Climate Justice.” We aim to expand the scope, impact, and diversity of membership over the course of three years, with an eye toward advancing interdisciplinary climate research, outreach, and education at Columbia University.
