Conversation topics at the webinar
Everyone knows that the world – that means all of us – must take drastic action to avoid a future with irreversible damage to the Earth. The way we do science can affect the planet in both positive and negative ways. How can you be an eco-friendly researcher?
As a member of a research institution, there’s a lot that can be done, both as an individual or as a group, that will help minimize the environmental impact of your research and associated activities. The only true harm comes from indifference and apathy.
This webinar will discuss the kinds of actions that can be taken at an individual, research group and institutional level that will have a positive environmental impact.
