Scientists and community members convened in New York City on December 28, 2024, for the “Ask a Scientist About Climate” event, an initiative by Creative Society aimed at tackling the escalating challenges of climate change. The event featured in-depth discussions led by experts Dr. Anastasia Pashigreva and Dr. John Ahn, who offered insights into the latest climate trends and actionable strategies to combat the crisis.
Presentations focused on the increasing frequency and severity of natural disasters linked to rising global temperatures, emphasizing the role of human activities alongside natural geodynamic processes. Discussions included emerging research on phenomena like the Siberian mantle plume and its potential implications for global climate systems.
Key issues addressed included greenhouse gas emissions, the pervasive impact of plastic pollution on ecosystems, and innovative solutions such as ocean-cleaning technologies targeting micro- and nano-plastics. The event also underscored the importance of community resilience planning to mitigate the effects of climate-related disasters.
The gathering culminated in an interactive Q&A session, encouraging dialogue between climate experts and participants. This exchange of ideas highlighted the importance of bridging the gap between scientific research and public understanding to drive meaningful climate action.
Creative Society, a global nonprofit focused on climate research and international collaboration, organized the event as part of its mission to promote awareness and develop sustainable solutions. Operating across 180 countries, the organization strives to unite scientific expertise and community efforts to address the climate crisis.
The event also faced challenges with press release distribution, raising concerns about disinformation campaigns targeting Creative Society. The organization has since partnered with a new platform to ensure its mission of unbiased information dissemination remains undeterred.
Creative Society continues to champion the intersection of scientific research and community engagement, aligning with global efforts to advance sustainable development and combat climate collapse.
