Mission directors announced for the Climate Project at MIT
The Climate Project at MIT, a New England Council member, has appointed leaders for each of its focal areas, or Climate Missions.
Introduced in February, MIT’s Climate Project is a major new effort to positively shift the trajectory of global climate outcomes over the next decade. The project will highlight MIT’s strengths in six broad climate-related areas where progress is strongly needed. The mission directors in these fields, offering diverse fields of expertise, will collaborate with faculty and researchers across MIT, as well as each other, to address and tackle climate change solutions.
“The mission directors will be absolutely central as the Climate Project seeks to marshal the Institute’s talent and resources to research, develop, deploy and scale up serious solutions to help change the planet’s climate trajectory,” President Sally Kornbluth wrote in her letter to the MIT community.
The New England Council applauds MIT for its steps toward achieving climate goals.
