WECAN is hosting the "Women’s Momentum Assembly for a Just Fossil Fuel Phaseout," a virtual global assembly bringing together diverse women leaders. This event precedes the First Conference on Transitioning Away from Fossil Fuels and is a strategic preparation for an historic government meeting in Colombia.

During the assembly, policymakers, frontline leaders, and advocates will discuss challenges and successful solutions for an equitable path to end the fossil fuel era.

Scientists have long studied climate change; now, the focus must shift to implementing solutions. As a technologist, I see immense potential for innovation to mitigate warming impacts—from preventing deforestation and preserving biodiversity to ensuring food security. The ambitious goal, central to "Operation Earth," is to leverage technology not just to limit warming, but to reverse damage and reduce global temperatures by one degree Celsius.

This urgent call to action comes from Daniela Rus, Director of MIT's Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL) and a distinguished professor. Her expertise in robotics and data science highlights the innovative approaches required. This talk was delivered at a TEDx event, which you can learn more about here.
