BNL2 Summit 2022: Combating Climate Change
How technology can mitigate humans' activity toward climate change
Dates: June 9–11, 2022
Hosted by Brookhaven National Laboratory
Motivation
The Science and Engineering Development Program (SEDP) is excited to announce the first BNL2 (Building Networks & Leaders at Brookhaven National Laboratory) Summit at Stony Brook University. This 2 and ½ day event is a result of the 2021 SEDP project team proposals to increase inter-directorate collaboration, build networks, meet new people, and increase interactivities, as well as have a greater shared understanding of research happening at Brookhaven Lab.
The theme of this year's event is Combating Climate Change where we will progress through understanding the Natural and Historic Dynamics of Climate Change and the Effects of Human Activity on Global Climate Change to How Technology Can Help Mitigate Humans' Activity Toward Climate Change. The event will include Keynote Speakers and Subject Matter Experts from Brookhaven National Laboratory.
