S1E13 Brokering International Climate Deals

This week we are joined by Associate Professor Noelle Selin, from MIT’s Institute for Data, Systems and Society, who has an intimate knowledge of international climate negotiations. Professor Selin explains the complexities of international environmental agreements, including the impact of social media, and we discuss the importance of integrating of government, policy and science when studying the environment. Profesor Selin also discusses MIT’s new interdisciplinary minor, Environment and Sustainability, which links the science and engineering with governance and policy.
