The Salata Institute for Climate and Sustainability and the Harvard Alumni Association invite you to the next installment of Harvard Voices on Climate Change, a virtual series showcasing Harvard faculty and fellows on different dimensions of the climate challenge.

This session will explore the complex decisions behind where and how renewable energy projects get built. Featuring Charles Taylor, Assistant Professor of Public Policy, Harvard Kennedy School, and Andrew Mergen, Emmett Assistant Clinical Professor of Environmental Law, Harvard Law School, the conversation will examine the legal, environmental, and community considerations that shape clean energy development. Together, we’ll discuss how policy and planning can help accelerate the energy transition while balancing ecological protection, community priorities, and the urgent need to decarbonize.
