SUMMARY:Lunch and Learn: Scenario Evolution Process
DESCRIPTION:How do evolving assumptions about socioeconomic development shape climate futures — and how can new scenario frameworks better inform research\, policy\, and planning? \nThe Shared Socioeconomic Pathways (SSPs) are widely used narratives developed by climate researchers and embedded in long-term models like International Futures (IFs) to project global development trends through 2100. These scenarios underpin much of the analysis produced by organizations such as the IPCC. \nJoin the Pardee Institute for a Lunch and Learn exploring new research that extends and reimagines these pathways\, including updated scenario frameworks projecting development through 2150. This session will also introduce the Scenario Evolution Process (SEP)\, a collaborative\, research community–led initiative aimed at building the next generation of socioeconomic scenarios beyond the SSPs. Beginning with a global survey and evolving through workshops and academic publications\, SEP represents a forward-looking effort to reshape how climate and development futures are modeled. This session is ideal for students\, researchers\, and practitioners interested in climate modeling\, socioeconomic futures\, and scenario development.

SUMMARY:Film Screening: "Lithium Rising: The Race for Critical Minerals" with Samuel George\, Deborah Avant\, and Linda Mendez-Barrientos
DESCRIPTION:The Josef Korbel School of Global and Public Affairs invites you to a special screening of Lithium Rising: The Race for Critical Minerals\, a Bertelsmann Foundation documentary. \nLithium Rising is a cinematic journey through the global race for critical minerals—the metals powering our green transition. Filmed across five continents\, the documentary explores how the drive to decarbonize has sparked fierce geopolitical competition while imposing steep costs on vulnerable communities at the frontlines of extraction. \nFrom the salt flats of the Andean highlands to the cobalt pits of the Democratic Republic of the Congo\, the film meets miners\, Indigenous leaders\, industry executives\, and policymakers navigating the promises and perils of this new resource boom. Whether it is water scarcity threatening communities in the Atacama desert or tribal sovereignty and land-use disputes in Nevada\, the film reveals how the quest for a greener future risks repeating the extractive injustices of the past. \nWith intimate access and sweeping visuals\, the film asks: Who benefits from the green boom—and who gets left behind? \nJoin us on February 25 for the screening\, followed by a discussion with director Samuel George and special guests. \nWe're looking forward to welcoming you for a screening of the 1-hour film\, followed by discussion and Q&A. Light refreshments will be served--RSVP today! \nDoors will open at 5:45pm with introductions and the film beginning at 6:15pm. \n \n
