Evidence for Hope: A Conversation Exploring "The New Global Possible"
Join us for a conversation with WRI President & CEO Ani Dasgupta as he explores the bold ideas behind his new book, The New Global Possible: Rebuilding Optimism in the Age of Climate Crisis. He will be joined by Jennifer Morgan, former State Secretary and Special Envoy for International Climate Action at the German Federal Foreign Office.
At a time of fractured geopolitics, mounting climate impacts, and rising inequality, this conversation will leave you with new ideas and tools for navigating the complexity of today’s crises—and turning them into opportunities for lasting progress. It will tackle some of the most urgent questions of our time, including:
- How can countries work together on climate action when multilateralism is in retreat?
- Can we harness technological innovation to protect nature instead of accelerating its destruction?
- What does it take to challenge entrenched power structures and accelerate a just, clean energy transition?
Drawing from interviews with more than 100 global leaders, Ani offers rich examples of unlikely partnerships, breakthrough leadership, and lessons from failure with a fresh, hopeful vision for systemic change—grounded in realism, collaboration, and possibility.
