Craig Segall
Senior Director @ Climate Hub
I'm a long time climate policy designer and advocate; I've overseen core aspects of California's climate policies, managed national advocacy groups, worked on energy transition policies, and litigated core legal cases. I am affiliated with three research universities -- NYU, Berkeley, and Edinburgh. Opinion, of course, are my own!
Thanks for reading, and would love your take as you think this through -- drop me a line here or over linkedin/email. Seeing the crowd at SFCW was fascinating; really confirmed to me that this is an area that is set to move.
My sense (as you'd expect from the post) is that funding into the political/governance layer on top of the research development layer is a worthy additional path -- so both forwarding the great science work that Silverlining and Reflective (or Arete, say, for glaciers) do, and also looking towards orgs moving government capacity forward to shape policy that research informs. Looking forward to your review!
