In this course, students discuss a range of research fields related to climate change through weekly discussions surrounding the BIOMES seminar series, YSE’s flagship forum for bringing cutting-edge research to the community. Topics covered include climate adaptation and mitigation, biodiversity loss, climate impacts in the Arctic, and quantifying the impacts of industry. This course highlights diverse perspectives on climate change—including practitioners, policy experts, and natural and social scientists—and aims to develop an impactful product addressing climate action plans, whether in YSE, New Haven, or beyond.
