About Us
We are the premier hub and policy institution for global energy thought leadership. Energy impacts every element of our lives, and our trusted fact-based research informs the decisions that affect all of us.
Nuclear energy can be an important tool for addressing global climate change. According to the International Energy Agency, achieving global emissions reduction goals will require nearly doubling, between 2020 and 2050, electricity produced from nuclear reactors. As momentum grows for meaningful climate action, nuclear energy in some corners is experiencing a resurgence of interest.
But trust and confidence in nuclear energy remains low in many sectors, and younger generations and people of color, many of whom are driving the conversation on climate action and climate justice, have questions about nuclear energy. Historical injustices tied to the nuclear sector and open questions on cost, timeliness, and safety loom large.
Please join the Center on Global Energy Policy at Columbia SIPA and Good Energy Collective for a moderated, in-depth discussion and Q&A addressing these issues. This panel elevates young and diverse voices at the intersection of nuclear energy and climate, addressing the role of the youth voice in global fora, and explores the shifting landscape of nuclear policy and opinion.
Moderator:
Daniel Propp, Senior Special Assistant to the Founding Director, Center on Global Energy Policy at Columbia SIPA
Speakers:
Kelsy Green, Postdoctoral Researcher, Los Alamos National Laboratory; Former Climate Change Project Chair, International Youth Nuclear Congress
Victor Ibarra Jr., Nuclear Innovation Analyst, Nuclear Innovation Alliance
Cleo Schroer, Senior Policy Analyst, Good Energy Collective
