U.S. Special Envoy for Climate Change Todd Stern, who has led the United States in global climate talks since 2009, will address domestic and international efforts to mitigate the threat of global climate change during a public speech at Yale University on Tuesday, October 14 at 4:30 p.m. The event is hosted by the Yale School of Forestry & Environmental Studies and Yale Law School. The speech comes just weeks before the 20th annual United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change in Lima, Peru, that will aim to help set a constructive course toward a successful international climate agreement to be reached at the 2015 climate conference in Paris. Special Envoy Stern’s speech at Yale follows the United Nations Climate Summit, held in New York on September 23, where more than 120 heads of state plus business and civil society leaders came together to call for ambitious action on climate change. At the Summit, President Obama touted U.S. progress on the Climate Action Plan, reaffirmed a U.S. commitment to reach a global climate agreement, and announced several new climate change initiatives with U.S. participation. Special Envoy Stern represents the Obama Administration at the ministerial level during all bilateral and multilateral negotiations related to climate issues. He also participates in the development of domestic climate and clean energy policy. The event will be held in Levinson Auditorium at the Yale Law School, 127 Wall Street and is open to the public. The event will also be broadcast via live web stream at https://www.youtube.com/user/YaleUniversity. The remarks will be open to the press. Press should check in at the security desk at the 127 Wall Street main entrance.
