Living Future Roundtable: Carbon Mitigation at Scale

We will look at carbon from the large scale and in terms of circular economic principles.

The Roundtable will kick off with a couple of short (5 minute) presentations on carbon mitigation actions and regulations at the state and city levels, followed by a short overview of how circular economic principles can serve to support carbon mitigation efforts. This is all followed by a roundtable discussion.

This is unique opportunity to discuss decarbonization strategies with representatives from the City of Boston and the State.
