Climate Change and The Future of Scholarly Publishing

01:00:09

2022 | Jun 02, David Smith, Brooks Hanson, Angela Cochran

COP26 finished in November 2021. And still, we are not able to limit global warming to no more than 1.5 degrees. But progress has been made. What does the Scholarly Publishing industry need to do to decarbonize? As an industry, much of the technical work done on scholarly content happens in places that are already affected by climate events: The monsoons in India, smog and air pollution in the wider subcontinent, typhoons in the Philippines, and hurricanes up the eastern seaboard. Much of London, New York, and other places are at risk of sea level rises as the climate changes. The Pandemic has shown us that we can work differently, that we can change, and fast if needs be. How can we build on this to work together to do our bit to get to no more than 1.5 degrees of warming? This panel will explore a number of these facets of climate change and look to understand where we are as an industry and what we need to do over the next few years. || Speakers: Angela Cochran; David Smith; Brooks Hanson
