SUMMARY:CSSN Annual Conference: Rollback: Climate obstruction gets its mojo back
DESCRIPTION:In this year’s conference\, we’re focusing on the ways in which climate obstruction tactics are transforming\, and how the research is changing with it. We will think about how we can make meaningful progress in a new field while academic institutions are under attack in the US and abroad\, and what the future of climate obstruction may look like. In this closed morning session\, we will hear about the work coming out of grant research and working groups\, as well as a session with our directors on future directions for CSSN. Be sure to also register for our keynote presentation with Dale Jamieson.

What’s the most we can hope for? How can we make that happen?“. Panelists and audience members will have a chance to learn about the UNFCCC COP process; learn why the Amazon is critical and complicated for climate progress; discover some of the things that Brazilian and international organizations are doing to reduce emissions\, enhance community resilience\, and promote sustainable development; and learn more about ways to have an impact on the COP negotiations and climate goals more broadly. \nFebruary 21\, 10am ET/ 12pm AMT: The State of Climate Negotiations\, and Why COP30 is Important \nThis is the first installment of a 4-part webinar series.

SUMMARY:Techno-Feudalism: Big Carbon and Big Tech’s Disinfo
DESCRIPTION:Climate Action Against Disinformation would like to invite you to Techno-Feudalism: Big Carbon and Big Tech’s Disinfo\, a webinar on Wednesday about how Big Tech and Big Carbon’s team-up makes disinformation an even bigger problem than ever before. Fortunately\, we’ll be talking about some big solutions\, as Brazil takes the reins on international climate negotiations ahead of COP30. \nThis CAAD webinar will feature Professor Jennifer Jacquet\, to discuss research on Big Ag’s climate disinfo\, followed by new findings on Big Tech’s bad behaviour from the Center for Countering Digital Hate’s Imran Ahmed. Having laid bare the problems\, we’ll hear about some potential solutions from Founder and CEO of FALA\, Thais Lazzeri\, who will offer some hope about Brazil’s pursuit of real regulations and policy changes to stop the spread of disinformation. After that\, we’ll open the floor for attendees to ask questions and share their own perspectives. \nSpeakers: \nJennifer Jacquet\, Professor of Environmental Science and Policy at the Rosenstiel School of Marine\, Atmospheric\, and Earth Science at the University of Miami\nImran Ahmed\, Center for Countering Digital Hate\nThais Lazzeri\, Founder and CEO of FALA
