Correcting the Course on Climate Change Negotiations: the Road from Paris COP21, will feature climate change policy expert David Victor, professor of international relations at UC San Diego’s School of Global Policy & Strategy and GPS students Joaquin Vallejo and Shayla Ragimov, who participated in COP21, and will provide their insights on the process and the outcome. Victor has been a participant in the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) proceedings since the IPCC’s inception, and was a party to the negotiations in Paris. Victor, co-director of the Laboratory on International Law and Regulation, is the author of Global Warming Gridlock, his 2011 book which argued that a “radical rethinking” of global warming policy was needed in order to make international law more effective in bringing about international compacts to reduce global emissions.
Due to construction on the road that provides direct access to Geisel Library, we encourage visitors to park in the Hopkins Parking Structure located on the corner of Hopkins Lane and Voight Drive. You will need to purchase a Visitor Premium (VP) Permit at a pay station near the entrance. For more information on the cost of parking permits, restrictions, and more, click here. Then follow the pedestrian signage from the parking structure to the Library.
