Michael Gerrard, Faculty Director for the Sabin Center for Climate Change Law, will lead a training on Legal Pathways to Deep Decarbonization. His team's research offers a "legal playbook" of over 1,000 model laws to help the U.S. reduce greenhouse gas emissions by at least 80% from 1990 levels by 2050.

Gerrard will discuss necessary changes in federal, state, and local law to achieve these reductions. He will also highlight how CCL volunteers can promote these model laws to legislators.

Alarmed by their climate change research, a growing number of scientists are stepping out of the lab to advocate for solutions. Dr. Kim Cobb, a Georgia Tech professor and leading expert on corals, is among those speaking out.

Her resolve deepened after a 2016 research trip to the South Pacific, where she witnessed the obliteration of most of the coral reef she had been studying. This devastating experience was a "bellwether event" for Dr. Cobb, prompting her to go "all in" on climate solutions, personally and professionally.
