Join DRCLAS for a broad discussion with Izabella Teixeira on topics such as the challenges and opportunities of the United Nations Conference of the Parties (COPs) meetings for climate and biodiversity, worldwide natural resource management, and Brazil’s potential for generating sustainable solutions. Dr. Teixeira, who served as Brazil's Minister of the Environment (2010-16), is one of the foremost global authorities on climate change. Many of her views on contemporary Brazil are expressed in the recently published book Inquietações de um Brasil contemporâneo: Desafio das Eras Climáticas, Digital-tecnológica e Biológica (in English: “Concerns of Contemporary Brazil: Challenges of the Climate, Digital-Technological, and Biological Ages”). This book was developed under the Instituto Arapyáu Fellowship program and will soon be published in English.
