Addressing Air Travel: Showcase and Discussion

February 11, 2025, 10:00 am to 12:00 pm

CIRS Policy Labs

Business air travel is one of UBC’s largest emissions sources, and reducing it is a complex (and often controversial) issue. How can UBC, departments, and community members act to address it?
Bring your ideas and come find out!

We will be featuring a series of guest speakers who have taken action to address the challenge of air travel (10-11AM) followed by an open brainstorming session where we’ll be looking at some of the big ideas and questions around business air travel, and collecting and sharing ideas.

Come help us shape the discussion around one of the most challenging and engaging climate issues facing UBC!
