Description

There is a robust and growing demand for a more pragmatic approach to the climate challenge. The Rightful Place of Science: Climate Pragmatism brings together powerful ideas for meeting this demand. The starting point of this new approach is a commitment to human dignity and the potential for innovation to drive economic prosperity and protect the lives and livelihoods of billions of people. Driven by pragmatic and inclusive political strategies, this new framework builds on earlier work to focus on energy access, energy innovation, and climate adaptation.
