This interview from The Well features Arthur Brooks discussing metacognition—the act of thinking about thinking. Brooks explains how this skill helps us reflect on our emotional life, allowing us to evaluate feelings before reacting. This practice fosters greater emotional health, much like encouraging children to "use their words" instead of screaming.

Metacognition is a learnable skill requiring patience. Brooks stresses that negative emotions are normal and healthy; what matters is how we engage with them. Mastering this ability can enhance personal happiness and the well-being of others. Watch Arthur Brooks’s next interview: There is a formula for happiness — but it’s highly misunderstood.

Maintaining human well-being across generations is a core sustainability challenge, intrinsically linked to clean air and climate change. Pollutants from sources like power plants and vehicles

Maintaining human well-being across generations is a core sustainability challenge, intrinsically linked to clean air and climate change. Pollutants from sources like power plants and vehicles degrade air quality and drive climate change, which further exacerbates air quality issues. Addressing both simultaneously, with a people-centered approach, is crucial for present and future health.

Noelle Eckley Selin, an MIT Associate Professor, specializes in these interconnected issues. Her research uses atmospheric chemistry modeling to inform decision-making on air pollution, climate change, and hazardous substances. With a Harvard PhD and experience in science-policy interactions, Professor Selin's expertise is vital. This talk was given at a TEDx event. Learn more at ted.com/tedx.

The Energy Innovation Act is projected to save 4.5 million American lives over 50 years by reducing pollution. Dr. Susan Pacheco and Dr. Lori Byron will discuss the health community's growing support for a carbon price.

Dr. Pacheco, a Professor of Pediatrics and expert in climate change and children's health, brings insights from her work with the AAP and AAAAI. Dr. Byron, a pediatrician and CCL Health Action Team Co-leader, has extensive experience in pediatric climate advocacy and energy policy, including her role on the EPA's Children's Health Advisory Committee.

David Keith reviews the science and technology of solar geoengineering, addressing the following Q’s: how effective could it be in reducing climate risks? What new risks does it entail? What is uncertain? And, finally, how could uncertainty be reduced to a substantial research program? He presents a case for integrating solar geoengineering into a 4D climate policy that includes emissions cuts, carbon removal, and adaptation.

David Keith has worked near the interface between climate science, energy technology, and public policy since ’91. He took first prize in Canada’s national physics prize exam, won MIT’s prize for excellence in experimental physics, and was one of TIME Magazine’s Heroes of the Environment. David is Professor of Applied Physics at the Harvard School of Engineering and Applied Sciences and Professor of Public Policy at the Harvard Kennedy School, and founder of Carbon Engineering, a Canadian company developing technology to capture CO 2 from ambient air to make carbon-neutral hydrocarbon fuels. Best known for his work on the science, technology, and public policy of solar geoengineering, David led the development of Harvard’s Solar Geoengineering Research Program, a Harvard-wide interfaculty research initiative. His work has ranged from the climatic impacts of large-scale wind power to an early critique of the prospects for hydrogen fuel. David’s hardware engineering work includes the first interferometer for atoms, a high-accuracy infrared spectrometer for NASA’s ER-2, the development of Carbon Engineering’s air contactor and overall process design, and the development of a stratospheric propelled balloon experiment for solar geoengineering. He teaches science and technology policy, climate science, and solar geoengineering. David is the author of over 200 academic publications with a total citation count of over 13,000. He has written for the public in op-eds and A Case for Climate Engineering.

The Association of Space Explorers (ASE) united astronauts from multiple nations, including Germany, Japan, US, and India, to send a vital message of solidarity, hope, and collaboration to political leaders concerning climate change. This powerful initiative aims to inspire action during a crucial time.

For deeper insight into the Overview Effect and astronaut experiences, explore "OVERVIEW" on YouTube and "PLANETARY," available on iTunes. The video was produced by astronaut Ron Garan and the award-winning Planetary Collective, in association with Daria Lopez-Alegria of Space Bridges.

Green and digital transitions are interconnected and mutually reinforcing, crucial for a just future. Digital technologies aid environmental management, while sustainability guides digital solutions. These transitions will create new jobs, offset some losses, and demand new skills for all.

This session will explore the essential effects of these transitions on jobs and skills, identifying required skills (digital and beyond) to mitigate climate change impacts. It will also highlight policy measures and good practices for skills development.

Moderated by Anne Shannon Baxter (GSMA), panelists include Olga Strietska-Ilina (International Labour Organization), Nanko Madu (AfriLabs), Dr. Mindel Van de Laar (United Nations University – MERIT and Maastricht University), and Robert Marinkovic (International Organisation of Employers).
