AIMS NEI Fellowship Program for Women in Climate Change Science

Climate change represents one of humanity’s greatest challenges of the 21^st century. The continued ascent of our species depends to a significant extent on our ability to limit further catastrophic changes to the climate and to adapt to both past and future changes. In many parts of the world, changes in climatic variables – including incessant increases in temperature and declines in precipitation – are already having detrimental impacts on food security, human health, energy, biodiversity, etc. Some of these impacts further alter the climate – e.g. plant biodiversity loss reduces CO₂sequestration, contributing to temperature rises – creating positive feedback loops with increasingly perilous consequences for humanity.
