DESCRIPTION:Seventh Annual Trottier Symposium on Sustainable Engineering\, 
 Energy and Design will focus on how we can apply the lessons learned from 
 Covid-19 to Climate Change. Free online event with speakers: Naomi Oreskes
 \, Ph.D.\, and Michael E. Mann\, Ph.D\n\n\nThe current COVID-19 pandemic h
 as been referred to by some as the “time-lapse of the climate crisis” and 
 has highlighted the importance of heeding the warnings of scientists and e
 xperts to make informed policy decisions in order to stave off the most di
 re consequences. Much like the novel virus\, climate change affects the gl
 obal population\, and though there has been significant progress towards t
 echnological solutions in areas of manufacturing\, infrastructure and rene
 wable energy to mitigate its effects\, progress on implementation has been
  sporadic and fragmented. In the context of the current situation\, the 7t
 h Annual Trottier Symposium on Sustainable Engineering\, Energy and Design
  will focus on laying a road map to addressing the climate change crisis w
 hile considering the following questions:\n\n\n	Are there lessons learned f
 rom the COVID-19 pandemic and society’s response\, which can be applied to
  accelerating action on the climate emergency?\n	What are the most promisin
 g\, important\, equitable\, and viable solutions to climate change and whi
 ch are most likely to face opposition from the public and/or special inter
 est groups?\n	How can scientists and engineers communicate their work to po
 licymakers to help accelerate the implementation of technological and oper
 ational solutions that support future sustainable development?\n\n\nSpeake
