How to Create a Climate Venture Class

Apply by the early bird deadline on January 9!

Climate change is one of the biggest problems facing our world and there are countless ways to approach solutions. In this non-credit-bearing weekly online class, we'll help you come up with an idea, test the viability of your idea, and connect with fellow climate entrepreneurs. "How to Create a Climate Venture" is open to Harvard students, alumni, faculty, and staff, and affiliates at Stanford, MIT, Dartmouth, schools in the ClimateCAP network, and schools in the Greentown Labs TEX-E Consortium (Rice, Texas A&M, UT-Austin, Prairie View A&M, and University of Houston). Apply for the spring 2025 class now!

Harvard Voices on Climate Change: An Ecosystem for Sustainable Computing

Zoom

The Salata Institute and the Harvard Alumni Association present Harvard Voices on Climate Change, a virtual series featuring Harvard faculty and fellows working on different dimensions of the climate challenge. This session features David Brooks, Haley Family Professor of Computer Science, and Gage Hills, Assistant Professor of Electrical Engineering, both from the Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences. As the demand for computational power grows, so does its environmental footprint. Professors Brooks and Hills will explore how advancements in computing can contribute to a more sustainable future. Join us to hear about emerging technologies, energy-efficient designs, and the role of interdisciplinary innovation in addressing climate challenges.
