South Florida will become the epicenter of the climate community this weekend as several events kick off that will highlight the impacts of and solutions to climate change.

The main event will be the Aspen Ideas: Climate conference, which returns to Miami Beach March 6-9 for its second year. The conference will bring over 300 speakers to the Miami Beach Convention Center and the New World Center, including vice president Kamala Harris, Miami-born latin music star Gloria Estefan, celebrity scientist Bill Nye, White House “climate czar” Ali Zaidi, former Colombian president Iván Duque, and executives from financial institutions like Bank of America, Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley.

Tickets are still available, but are very expensive. They start at $250 for a single day pass.

In the days leading up to the conference, Aspen Ideas will also host the Future Leaders Climate Summit, which will bring together 250 researchers, activists and civil servants between the ages of 18 and 30 on March 3-6. These young climate leaders, who hail from South Florida and countries around the globe including Haiti, Hungary, Lebanon, Rwanda, Argentina and India, will meet ahead of the conference to hash out climate solutions they can bring back to their communities.

An even younger crop of future climate leaders will meet at 9 a.m. on Saturday at the Miami Youth Climate Summit. A group of students from 15 public and private schools organized the event to teach their peers about the effects of climate change. Speakers include Miami-based eco-artist Xavier Cortada, Miami Waterkeeper policy director Audrey Siu, and David Roper, founder of the Greenhaven Project, which creates community gardens in food deserts around Miami.

Buy an expensive ticket and get to kiss a “celebrity’s” ass. Donate to Save the Snow Owl and you get to kiss a snow owl’s ass.

From the article: "...the impacts of and solutions to climate change".

In other words, people with a "solution" looking for a problem to solve. The Modern Warm Period doesn't need a "solution". Instead we ought to enjoy it for the 2 to 4 centuries left in it before our offspring enter yet another cooling period.

How do you come up with a “solution” for a problem you can’t prove actually exists?

Of course the air conditioning will be turned off to mitigate the carbon damage.

So Miami which was already supposed to be under water was chosen as the site.

“South Florida will become the epicenter of the climate community this weekend as several events kick off that will highlight the impacts of and solutions to climate change.”

The solution to solving climate change is to commit all the Greeniacs to mental institutions.
