21st Science and Society Conference: Our House is Burning: Scientific and Societal Responses to Mass Extinction - Virtual

The 21st EMBL Science & Society Conference in 2020 seeks to address these questions. It will consider the impact of environmental changes on biodiversity, ecosystem services, and human well-being. Crucially, it will focus on potential solutions and types of action: from activism to political strategies, and from local grass-roots conservation groups to global youth movements. It will also evaluate the application of various targeted intervention methods across data science, emerging technologies, sustainability solutions and beyond.

Topics: science, society, technology, environment, environmental changes, biodiversity, ecosystem, human well-being, activism, political strategies, data science, sustainability, extinction, human history
