Why this event is so important!

Every year, eminent scientists from around the world are invited to review the latest research findings on climate change and summarize them into ten concise insights. This expert work represents a rich and valuable synthesis for policy-makers and society as a whole. Don’t miss this important discussion of our national climate change objectives on the international stage, and the fundamental role Quebec plays in the process.
