SUMMARY:Rutgers Climate Week: Integrated Action for Climate and Biodiversity in a Triple COP Year
DESCRIPTION:The United Nations will host three Conference of the Parties meetings this year: UNCCD on land\, UNFCCC on climate\, and CBD on biodiversity. While these important meetings are held separately\, there is a growing awareness of the need for integrated action across them. Our session will highlight science-based solutions that can bridge across these policy divides and deliver wins for the planet. RCEI affiliate Dr. Pam McElwee is one of the panelists in this discussion. \nEvent Information:  \nDate/Time: September 24th at 9:00am \nFormat: Webinar \nRegistration: https://event.sciencesummitnyc.org/list-of-sessions/detail/461 \nOpen to: Rutgers faculty\, staff\, students\, and the general public. \nEvent Sponsor(s): Science Summit 2026 \nCost: Free \n

SUMMARY:Rutgers Climate Week: Bridging Minds
DESCRIPTION:  \nYou are invited to join Rutgers University–New Brunswick Chancellor Francine Conway for a special Bridging Minds conversation with global conservation leader\, Founder of Conservation International and Nia Tero\, and Rutgers alumnus Peter Seligmann. Bridging Minds explores how understanding ourselves and others can deepen empathy\, strengthen connection\, and help us navigate different perspectives. In this conversation\, Chancellor Conway and Seligmann will reflect on how listening\, curiosity\, and engaging with different perspectives have shaped his approach to conservation and leadership\, and how building trust across differences can help people find common ground around some of our most complex shared challenges. \nEvent Information:  \nDate/Time: September 25th at 10:00am \nFormat: In-Person \nLocation: Livingston Student Center\, 84 Joyce Kilmer Ave. Piscataway\, NJ 08854 \nRegistration: By September 21st at https://bt.rutgersfoundation.org/en/8a2AsaS7/preview/bridging-minds-with-chancellor-francine-conway-and-peter-seligmann-4a7pRbCoqf/overview \nOpen to: Rutgers faculty\, staff\, and students \nEvent Sponsor(s): The Rutgers New-Brunswick Office of the Chancellor\n \nCost: Free

SUMMARY:Rutgers Climate Week: Subnational Approaches to Biodiversity\, Climate Action\, and Environmental Justice
DESCRIPTION:  \nWhile climate and conservation goals are often framed at national or global scales\, their success depends on how they are pursued at subnational levels. Drawing on diverse expertise across U.S.-based and China-based organizations\, this panel discusses subnational approaches to biodiversity conservation\, climate action\, and environmental justice. \nSpeakers include representatives from the American Museum of Natural History Center for Biodiversity Conservation in New York City\, the U.S. National Park Service in California\, The Nature Conservancy in Beijing\, and Green Camel Bell in Gansu. Each speaker will discuss their work on different aspects of biodiversity\, climate action\, and/or environmental justice. \nPanelists will speak for about 8-10 minutes sharing their mission\, recent work\, and reflections on some key lessons from their work and practices. \nThen panelists will have an opportunity to field questions from the audience and discuss their work further with one another. \nPanelists: \n\nPeng Kui\, Science Lead and Interim Project Director at The Nature Conservancy Beijing Office (Beijing)\nJeff Martin\, Research Social Scientist with the USDA Forest Service (California)\nAna Porzecanski\, Director of the Center for Biodiversity and Conservation at the American Museum of Natural History (New York City)\nZhao Zhong\, Founder and Director of Green Camel Bell (Gansu Province)\n\nModerator: \nJesse Rodenbiker\, Assistant Professor of Geography\, Rutgers University and RCEI Affiliate \n  \nEvent Information:  \nDate/Time: September 25th at 12:00pm \nFormat: Webinar \nRegistration: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/83487277260 \nMore Information: https://www.climateweeknyc.org/event-search/past-events/subnational-approaches-to-biodiversity-climate-action-and-environmental-justice-from-us-and-china-perspectives \nOpen to: Rutgers faculty\, staff\, students\, members of the public \nEvent Sponsor(s): National Committee on US-China Relations\, RCEI\n \nCost: Free
