 Hello, my name is Jeff Mann and I teach economic geography and political economy at Simon Fraser University in Vancouver, British Columbia And I want to invite you to attend and engage with INET's new climate debate series. At the climate debates we'll be discussing a whole variety of really important issues, the role of economics in addressing climate change, the role, if any, of green finance, so-called green finance, international arrangements and institutions that might help us address or not help us address the issues, the relationship between US and China over climate and climate change, climate justice and just transition, an enormous range of issues will be addressed. And the importance of these questions can hardly be overstated. Massive climate-induced disruption is already underway in many parts of the world and accelerating across the globe. We desperately need collective mechanisms and processes to adapt, to mitigate or to address climate change in any way at all, urgently, we need these institutions. To register to attend the climate justice conference, go to ineteconomics.org for more information and please join us. I really encourage you to listen in and this debate is promised to be an excellent event.
