In this series of dialogues with leaders from various disciplines, we position design as an essential component of entrepreneurial approaches which explore the sociocultural and eco-political dimensions of climate change. Economist, architects, planners, sociologist, lawyers, policymakers, landscape architects, and MBA’s contribute to a spirited discussion around climate change and design.
Global climate change has already resulted in a wide range of impacts across every region of the country. Many sectors of the economy are expected to grow related to climate and health in the coming decades. The design and retrofit of buildings, infrastructure and cities will be a major part of future efforts.
