This briefing, part of a series of SciLine media briefings covering key issues in the 2024 election, will cover what the latest scientific research says about:
- U.S. greenhouse gas emissions by source, how they have shifted in recent decades, and their relative contributions to climate change;
- Progress towards meeting national and global greenhouse gas emissions reductions targets, and where major challenges remain;
- The environmental benefits of moving away from fossil fuels, and the social, technology, and policy challenges of doing so;
- Factors that encourage or deter people from accepting new sources of energy; and
- Promising sectors where the green transition is already happening.
When: July 9, 2024 @ 1-2 p.m. ET
