The recent publication of the United Nations report on climate change led to a slew of scary headlines and lots of handwringing across the world.
A new interdisciplinary action center established at Tel Aviv University aims to change this reality.
“The goal of the center is to look for a solution for the crisis of climate change and not necessarily keep on doing research on how sea levels are going to rise or how hot it’s going to be,” explains Prof. Colin Price, head of the recently launched Center for Climate Change Action.
“It’s time to switch gears and think how to solve the problem.”
Price, who has decades of climate research behind him, teamed up with a dozen other faculty members to unify all the knowledge on the subject on campus. Together, the scholars have mapped out what they can contribute to the battle and have set out to work on four action-minded tracks.
