April 24, 2018 - Politics and Justice in the Quest for Decarbonization

Matt Hoffmann

Professor Matt Hoffmann, U of T Scarborough Political Science Professor and Co-Director of the Munk School’s Environmental Governance Lab, addresses how diverse communities are responding to the global challenge of climate change, and the need to put questions of justice and equity front and centre in the pursuit of decarbonization and climate policy. Among his other works, Prof. Hoffmann is the author of the book "Climate Governance at the Crossroads: Experimenting with a Global Response after Kyoto."

Great Explorations, is a series of academic discussions we hope will inspire our communities. Our special thanks to our engaged, critical thinkers who attend our speaker series. The dialogues that come out of these talks, both in-person and online via Zoom, are integral to our campus community and Scarborough communities at large. We welcome your input for future topics, as well as a review of previous recorded sessions available on YouTube.
