DESCRIPTION:How will climate risks evolve as global warming approaches seve
 ral degrees? The coming decades will test societies’ capacity to anticipate
  and withstand a growing spectrum of climate-driven hazards\, from intensif
 ying storms and floods to more frequent droughts\, wildfires\, and coastal 
 flooding. These risks are already reshaping economies\, displacing communit
 ies\, and exposing weaknesses in infrastructure\, governance\, and emergenc
 y response systems. Vulnerability is especially acute in low-lying coastal 
 regions\, agricultural zones\, and rapidly expanding urban areas\, where un
 even development and limited resources magnify exposure to climate shocks. 
 Which regions are poised to face the greatest transformations?  What tools 
 can reliably guide long-term planning\, and where do uncertainties still co
 nstrain decision-making? What factors determine whether extreme events esca
 late into humanitarian or economic crises?\n\nThe Deitz Family Initiative o
 n Environment & Global Affairs will host a conversation with Yale professor
  Matthew Huber (Department of Earth\, Atmospheric\, and Planetary Sciences 
 at Purdue University\, and Visiting Fellow in the Yale Institute for Biosph
 eric Studies) and Jackson Senior Fellow Jessica Faieta (former United Natio
 ns Assistant Secretary-General and United Nations Development Program Regio
 nal Director for Latin America and the Caribbean). The talk will be moderat
 ed by Jessica Seddon\, Jackson senior lecturer and director of the Deitz Fa
 mily Initiative. Lunch will be provided for all attendees. \n\nThe Science 
 Policy Interchange is a series of dialogues dedicated to reimagining the co
 nnections between humans and the wider environment and climate. Yale studen
 ts\, faculty\, and practitioners will first hear from two speakers\, each w
 ith a distinct background\, working within a shared theme of interest at th
 e interchange of environmental science and policy. These short introductory
  talks will lead a moderated group discussion devoted to elaborating connec
 tions between the science and policy aspects of the session’s theme\, and t
 o generating critical insight for contemporary environmental governance. Th
 e series is a part of the My Climate Risk Hub at Yale\, currently convened 
 by Jessica Seddon and supported by Bamboo Grove. My Climate Risk is a World
  Climate Research Programme Lighthouse Activity that seeks to “develop and 
 mainstream a ‘bottom-up’ approach to regional climate risk\, which starts w
 ith the requirements of decision-makers.”
