On the Path to Net Zero: Critical Minerals, the Climate Crisis, and the Tech Imperium

Even while the climate crisis deepens, the decarbonization of the global economy and the fourth industrial revolution have been subsumed by geopolitics that remain anchored in realist power struggles, now revolving around Sino-American hyper-competition. Access to indispensable minerals for a net zero future has become securitized undermining ties of global interdependence. The panel of interdisciplinary scholars, institutional stakeholders, and industry experts provides insight into this latest manifestation of resource competition and discusses their contributions to the book "Critical Minerals, the Climate Crisis, and the Tech Imperium" (Springer Nature, 2023).

Panel Members
Constantine Karayannopoulos, Former CEO, Neo Performance Materials
Kristin Vekasi, Associate Professor, Department of Political Science and School of Policy and International Affairs, University of Maine
Owen Pell, The Auschwitz Institute for the Prevention of Genocide and Mass Atrocities; Retired Partner, White & Case LLP
Vasileios Tsianos, Director of Corporate Development, Neo Performance Materials

Moderated by
Sophia Kalantzakos, Global Distinguished Professor of Environmental Studies and Public Policy, NYUAD
