The climate crisis’ resulting harm to our global biodiversity is one of the world’s most pressing challenges. The complexity of the climate crisis requires global, national, and local actions informed by multidisciplinary research.
The goal of Creative Commons’ multi-year Open Climate Campaign is to promote open access to research that will accelerate progress towards solving the climate crisis and preserving global biodiversity.
If we are going to solve our global challenges, the global knowledge … meaning the research, data, educational resources, and software … must be open and available to all.
Interview Guest:
Dr. Monica Granados has a PhD in ecology from McGill University. While working on her PhD, Monica discovered incentives in academia which promote practices that make knowledge less accessible. Since then, Monica has devoted her career to working in the open science space in pursuit of making knowledge more equitable and accessible. Monica is presently Assistant Director, Open Climate at Creative Commonsworking on the Open Climate Campaign promoting open access of climate and biodiversity research. Dr. Monica Granados lives in Ottawa, Canada.
Guest CoHost:
Richard Nolthenius, Ph.D. is Astronomy Program Chair at Cabrillo College in Santa Cruz, CA.
