Darrel Moellendorf, a professor at Goethe University Frankfurt, examines climate justice in the Anthropocene—an era defined by humanity's impact on nature. He discusses geoengineering, new technologies to artificially cool the planet, as a potential solution, noting its inherent trade-offs and risks.

This clip summarizes Professor Moellendorf's comments from an April 2018 roundtable. Hosted by the Carnegie Council's "Ethics & International Affairs" journal at the International Studies Association's Annual Convention, the full transcript and audio are available here.

Much like pandemic mitigation, combating climate change requires difficult global cooperation. The emergence of new climate-altering technologies further complicates this, raising critical questions about governance, leadership, and ethics.

The Carnegie Climate Governance Initiative (C2G) addresses these challenges. For three years, C2G has engaged global decision-makers across governments, the UN, and civil society. They advocate for effective, inclusive governance of emerging climate technologies, urging proactive risk management and transparent global monitoring before events escalate.

Populism suggests citizens can enjoy globalization's benefits without globalism's trade-offs, challenging the current international system. This raises a key question: can populism sustain any version of globalization?

Join authors Ian Bremmer (Us Versus Them: The Failure of Globalism) and Tom Nichols (The Death of Expertise) to debate these issues. Nikolas Gvosdev, Carnegie Council senior fellow and professor at the U.S. Naval War College, will lead the discussion.

Suma Peesapati, board president of Communities for a Better Environment, argues that California's acclaimed climate policies often fail to improve conditions for low-income communities of color, which bear the brunt of pollution. She specifically criticizes the state's flawed cap-and-trade program.

This summary captures Ms. Peesapati's remarks from an April 2018 roundtable hosted by the Carnegie Council's journal, "Ethics & International Affairs," at the International Studies Association's Annual Convention.

Despite pledges to limit global warming, climate change is a current reality, and success seems unlikely. This panel explores how to advance ethical leadership for climate justice globally, nationally, and locally. Key topics include the Paris Agreement, geoengineering governance, California's challenges, and the Seychelles' innovative coping strategies.

This roundtable, sponsored by Carnegie Council's "Ethics & International Affairs" journal, took place on April 5, 2018, at the International Studies Association (ISA) Annual Convention in San Francisco.

Janos Pasztor, Executive Director of the Carnegie Climate Governance Initiative (C2G), discusses his organization's work on governing emerging climate intervention technologies. These include carbon removal and solar radiation management, aimed at quickly cooling the planet. He highlights current research and the urgent need for comprehensive governance frameworks, which are currently absent.

C2G's mission is to raise awareness across society and initiate governance discussions among international organizations and governments worldwide.
