Through May 19, 2026 David Rubenstein Forum
Climate systems engineering — consisting of open-systems carbon removal, sunlight reflection, and interventions to slow glacial melting — is increasingly part of the global debate about how societies could reduce the risks of climate change, alongside efforts to rapidly reduce carbon emissions. The individual approaches span different stages of scientific understanding and technical maturity, carry varying degrees of uncertainty and controversy, and raise distinct policy questions, but together they represent an urgent, growing frontier in climate science and policy.
This gathering will bring together leading researchers, policymakers, and other stakeholders to discuss and explore cutting-edge approaches for addressing climate change. Attendees will engage with expert perspectives on the potential benefits and risks associated with these emerging technologies.
