Climate Week at Penn returns for the sixth year Oct. 13 to 17, with dozens of free in-person and virtual discussions and activities across disciplines. The theme this year is “Hot Spots.”

“We thought that spoke to not just the literal heat of climate change, but also the fact that climate itself can be a hot spot—a hub of interest, activity, and sometimes controversy,” says Environmental Innovations Initiative (EII) director Katie Unger Baillie. They wanted to create a theme inviting people to “come to Climate Week at Penn with their own ideas and programming to share with the campus community.” Read more about Climate Week at Penn in Penn Today.
