Adaptation and resilienceHealth

Comprehensive heat resilience strategies require understanding drivers of heat stress, from long-term climatology to short-lived climate pollutants (HFCs, BC, and CH4). A dialogue between scientists and practitioners offers a temporally robust action agenda on policy, finance, & technology. Speakers: Dr. Vibha Dhawan, DG, TERI; Anand Patwardhan, University of Maryland; Zerin Osho, Director, IGSD (India); R.H. Rabarinirinarison, CEO, GCA; Prof. Jim Skea, Chair, IPCC; Peter Lawrence, UCAR (USA); Suruchi Bhadwal, TERI.
