The Global South in the Imagining of Climate Futures: A Conversation with Kim Stanley Robinson and Olúfẹ́mi O. Táíwò
About this Event

About this Event

The Institute for Carbon Removal Law and Policy (ICRLP) presents "The Global South in the Imagining of Climate Futures." Prolific science fiction writer Kim Stanley Robinson<https://us.macmillan.com/author/kimstanleyrobinson/> joins Olúfẹ́mi O. Táíwò<https://gufaculty360.georgetown.edu/s/contact/0033600001ebL6LAAU/ol%C3%BAf%E1%BA%B9mi-t%C3%A1%C3%ADw%C3%B2>, ICRLP Research Fellow and Associate Professor of Philosophy at Georgetown University, in conversation about visioning climate futures that privilege the Global South.

Robinson's most recent book, The Ministry for the Future, tells the story of an organization in the near future tasked with addressing the threat of climate change and advocating for a livable world for future generations. The novel includes fictional eye-witness accounts, featuring perspectives from the Global South, not just as climate change sufferers but as political players and drivers of the narrative. Robinson will speak to the choices, challenges, and opportunities that he came across in his placing the Global South in the imagining of climate futures.

As a political philosopher who studies environmental justice, Táíwò thinks specifically about carbon removal and how to distribute responsibilities, burdens, and resources to address the climate crisis justly. The discussion will focus on where the South fits into our collective thinking about climate action and the role of carbon removal in those futures.

The conversation will be moderated by Kate O'Neill<https://ourenvironment.berkeley.edu/people/kate-o039neill>, Professor in the Department of Environmental Science, Policy and Management at UC Berkeley.
