GSI Engagement and Policy Network: In Conversation with Olivia Lazard
Ecological security and Power Transition in the Mineral Age
Olivia will explore the intersection between the scramble for crucial minerals, climate vulnerability, ecological plundering, and the risks of linking energy transition with the acceleration of climate disruptions, and global inequity. Her meta-analysis of such implications leads to the obvious need to consider alternative economic models that contradict the need to ensure the geopolitical balance of power and military force. Come and join this interactive session to discuss the intersections of social, political, and natural science.
