A key theme of Fast Forward: MIT’s Climate Action Plan for the Decade is “the imperative of justice.” To showcase and unify work happening at MIT in the areas of climate justice and the just transition, the MIT Climate Nucleus is pleased to support a number of events and projects during the 2023 Independent Activities Period. These include:
Cool as a Cucumber: The food and climate nexus at MIT (three sessions; check listing for dates)
