Managing Our Planet Series

The Managing Our Planet series (2011-2018) is premised on the fact that humanity's impacts on the environment (including natural resources) are planetary in scale and require planetary-scale solutions. Jointly developed by George Mason University and the Wilson Center's Brazil Institute and Environmental Change and Security Program in 2011, the series has since hosted dozens of unique seminars examining how public policy is shaping climate change mitigation.
