Maldita.es, collaborating media outlet of ‘La Uni Climática’ organized by La Marea

Maldita.es is one of the 20 media outlets collaborating in the third edition of ‘La Uni Climática’, organized by La Marea and whose motto this year is “Science and action”. The sessions will take place between July 11 and 15 and will feature 29 speakers specialized in different areas of the climate crisis. Among them are 20 leading scientists, many of whom are authors who contributed to the Sixth Assessment Report of the IPCC, the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. Its vice chair, Thelma Krug, will give a class explaining what the IPCC is and why it is important.

The list of speakers also includes Giorgos Kallis, a Greek researcher working on environmental justice and the limits to growth, and Xaquín García-Muros, a postdoctoral researcher at the Basque Centre for Climate Change (BC3) and an expert on climate change from a class perspective.

This year ‘La Uni Climática’ also appeals to the responsibility of public administrations when designing public policies. Speaking on this topic will be Maisa Rojas, Chile’s Minister of the Environment and IPCC expert; Zakia Khattabi, Belgium’s Minister of Climate, Environment, Sustainable Development and the Green Deal; and Teresa Ribera, Spain’s Third Vice President and Minister for the Ecological Transition and the Demographic Challenge. Selwin Hart, Special Adviser to the UN Secretary-General and Assistant Secretary-General for the Climate Action Team, will also take part.
