DECEMBER 9, 1978— FRUIT
FOR FINALS: Frayed frosh
Business students prepare
fruity care packages at the
Business School for today’s
delivery to lucky freshpersons.
Working for AIESEC, the
International Association
of Students in Economics
and Business Management,
the packagers successfully
raised enough money to send
six University delegates to
the organization’s Seattle
convention.
MONDAY MEMORIES
PETER SERLING/Daily
Climate change and options for
supporting the environment were
among the central topics discussed
at the Climate Change Summit
Friday, where seven panelists —
each with a career related to the
environment and sustainability
— discussed the best ways to
contribute to climate research
and
environmental
stability.
The event was moderated by
SEAS Dean Jonathan Overpeck
and was part of the SEAS
Opening Ceremonies.
Sean Watkins, community
manager
at
the
Solutions
Project
—
an
organization
committed to a conversion to
100 percent renewable energy
— said one of the reasons he is
most passionate about climate
change is for the dialogues it
entails, much like those at the
panel.
“It’s having this conversation,
having this conversation with
people who don’t always look
like who you look like, to really
further the conversation about
not only how is climate change
affecting
folks
in
different
communities
around
the
country and around the world
but how folks are acting in their
own communities at their own
levels to really create change,”
he said.
Kait Parker, a meteorologist
at Weather.com and ABC News,
said the human aspect of climate
change is most important to her.
She also pointed to a need for
mitigation.
“As a meteorologist, I have
been there as people have died
in natural disasters and those
are getting worse,” she said.
“So how do we communicate
the steps that need to be taken
to mitigate those results? How
do we get people to build in the
areas that are safer and build
safer homes? How do we help
people and communicate that
this natural disaster is linked
in X, Y and Z ways to these
actions?”
She said it is important to
be on the front end of disasters
rather than cleaning up after
the fact.
To Parker’s point, Varun
Sivaram, Douglas Dillon Fellow
and acting director at the
Council on Foreign Relations,
said he agrees mitigation is
extremely important but that
to mitigate at a global level
is going to require energy
transformations at a scale and
speed the world has never seen
before. The Council on Foreign
Relations is a nonpartisan
think
tank
that
addresses
foreign policies issues.
“We do not have the energy
and technology we need today
to achieve a decarbonized
world,” he said. “In order
to get there we’re going to
need to invest heavily in
innovation.”
Sivaram
said
he
enjoys
studying
the
environment
in science labs, the business
sector and through a public
policy lens, as each angle
contributes differently to the
discovery of new technology.
Building off Sivaram’s talk
of innovation, Ben Bunker,
a
University
alum
and
CEO at Global Brightlight
Foundation, a nonprofit that
aims to bring solar power to
people
without
electricity,
said
certain
existing
technologies
are,
in
fact,
capable of making a change.
Bunker currently works to
assist rural communities in
Latin America.
