About

Topics

The energy and solid Earth resource communities are considering how their work may evolve to respond to changing societal demands as well as to climate change and its impacts. This includes discussion of the inequitable distribution of the benefits and consequences of Earth resource extraction and development. This meeting of the Board on Earth Sciences and Resources examines current energy and Earth resources research priorities, with emphasis on how addressing those priorities could also mitigate climate change and decrease adverse social and environmental impacts. Participants will discuss possible paths for these transitions, and ways in which BESR might support strategy development in these areas.
