RPA Virtual Assembly

In response to the COVID-19 crisis, Regional Plan Association’s annual Assembly is going virtual. RPA will be hosting a series of free online panels in May and June addressing the immediate and long-term effects of COVID-19 on the region’s health, economy, and infrastructure. On June 4th, RPA will host, “The Climate Change Pandemic & A Path to Decarbonization.” This panel will examine the public health implications of climate change and will discuss novel approaches to decarbonization, each with their own set of policy and political implications, against the backdrop of a global pandemic. What decisions and investments do we need to make today to ensure we hit our climate targets and avoid the worst of the climate crisis?
