Thursday, September 24, 7:00pm

Join us at Explorers Club Headquarters for a conversation of critical importance with opening remarks by three Trustees of The Explorers Club: Frederik Paulsen, Mikkel Vestergaard, and L. M. Levie, followed by leaders from climate research, communication and government.

The consequences of climate change are now part of our daily news cycle. How do the observations we make shape the decisions taken in corporate boardrooms, family offices, institutions, and governments? How do we rethink security and economic risk in a changing world?

Do we have the right tools to inform our decisions? And, ultimately, do we have the technologies to prevent planetary-scale catastrophes?

With a reception and networking after the program for all guests.

  • Frederik Paulsen, Chairman Emeritus, Ferring Pharmaceuticals
  • Mikkel Vestergaard, Founder and CEO, Sceye
  • L. M. Levie, Chairman, American Industrial Acquisition Corporation (AIAC)
  • Dr. Julie Pullen, Independent Earth System Scientist and Technologist
