The Paris Agreement, three years on, sparks debate about its ambition and effectiveness. While it provides predictability for climate action, experts note we're "not doing enough" for the 1.5° warming target. Trevor Houser cautions against a binary view; progress has already averted suffering, and more benefits are achievable while aiming for 1.5°-2°.

Rapid global decarbonization, focused on carbon reduction, is crucial. Joshua Goldstein emphasizes that U.S. climate leadership is vital; its absence hinders other nations' goals. Staffan Qvist cites Sweden's successful hydro and nuclear grid, contrasting it with Germany's problematic 100% renewables pursuit.

Viral Shah, an Indian computer scientist and co-founder/CEO of Julia Computing, highlights how computation, particularly his Julia Language, can solve major climate change issues. Julia, a high-impact language, defies the notion that productivity and performance are mutually exclusive in programming. He encourages students to use computation for social impact and global problem-solving.

Shah's contributions extend to the Aadhaar Project and co-authoring "Rebooting India." His work on the Julia Language earned him the 2019 J. H. Wilkinson Prize, and he received the 2013 SETWG award for co-creating Circuitscape. This talk was presented at a TEDx event. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx.

Stephen H. Schneider Award recipient Katharine Hayhoe states that intelligence does not predict an individual's feelings about climate change. Instead, the most significant factor is one's position on the political spectrum.

Hayhoe emphasizes that political alignment is the primary determinant of climate change perspectives. Therefore, initiating discussions from a foundation of shared identity is essential for effective communication on the topic.
