Renewable energy and electrification play a critical role in the clean energy transition. Please join us on Wednesday, November 16, for ASP’s first installment of the Innovating Out of the Climate Crisis series, focused on innovation and policy implications for electrification.
Demand for hydrogen has grown threefold since 1975 and has become extremely popular as a potential source of clean energy. But with an extremely high cost and high energy consumption for production, what role can green hydrogen really play in the clean energy transition?
A recap and video of this event is available here. Despite decades of emissions reductions pledges, countries’ carbon emissions continue to rise, and with them global temperatures. The last […]
The rapid growth in electric vehicles (EVs) today is part of a fundamental shift in transportation. Building on ASP's important work in the state of Florida, we're partnering with the Electrification Coalition for an upcoming in-person event that explores the implications of increased electrification in rural Florida and the connections to national security.
In the coming decades, climate change will make farmers’ jobs more difficult than ever, as rising temperatures, unpredictable rainfall, and spreading pests all take their toll on production. But agriculture is not a neutral actor: emissions from the sector account for more than 10 percent of the U.S. total, only marginally less than those from all commercial businesses and residences. Join ASP for a discussion on how innovation in agriculture—including advances in biotech, animal husbandry, soil and nutrient management, and more—can help agriculture adapt to climate change, reduce emissions, or even become a net carbon sink.
Heavy industry, including steel, cement, and chemical manufacturing account for approximately 30 percent of global carbon emissions. But, with demand for these industries projected to grow in the coming decades at the same time that scientists say that we must reach net zero, it is essential to find new approaches to cutting emissions from these industries. Please join us for the fifth installment of the Innovating Out of the Climate Crisis webinar series focused on hard to abate sectors, the role they play in global economics, and the policy and technological developments needed to facilitate climate-friendly manufacturing.
Although long known as the “Steel City” Pittsburgh has been laying the groundwork for significant climate action since 2007. From its first Climate Action Plan in 2008 to its ongoing sustainability innovations, join us for a public discussion on all things climate and sustainability, and what it means for Pittsburgh, greater Pennsylvania, and national security.
Join ASP and the University of West Florida for an public panel exploring the role Northwest Florida plays in enhancing national security, the consequences of climate insecurity, and climate resilience strategies for U.S. military installations.
Climate Security is a core component of U.S. national security. It exacerbates existing threats, risks, and hazards while simultaneously creating new ones. Join us for a discussion on the challenges already presented by climate change and Department of Defense adaptation/mitigation strategies.
2023 marks the 30th anniversary of the National Guard Bureau's State Partnership Program (SPP). Established following the breakup of the Soviet Union, the SPP pairs National Guards from every U.S. state and territory to increase security and advance U.S. interests.
