Happy Taiwan National Day!

If you're in Taipei for the long weekend, Sunday is the last day to catch the annual Climate Action Expo at Songyan Culture Park. Stop by the 美國在台協會 AIT AIT booth where yours truly is a part of the 美國資料中心 American Spaces wall!

Climate expos around the world are raising awareness for "Race to Zero” - a global mission to reach net zero carbon emission by 2050. We're honored to be a part of this lineup.

Waste Not Why Not podcast was launched on Earth Day 2019 precisely to raise awareness to the climate crisis. We're humbled to have a partner like AIT that's dedicated to empowering works around sustainably in non-conventional ways.

Their work with Taiwan's Ministry of Education on gaming (see the iPads that kids are playing with in photos), hackathon competitions with NASA for environment solutions, the podcast partnership with 鬼島之音 Ghost Island Media for public engagement; they all communicate that solving the climate crisis takes multi-prong approaches. We're excited to see what they have in store for the coming year.

The Climate Action Expo at-large center around three themes: adaptation, decarbonization and education. Exhibitors include the public and the private sectors.

AIT and ’s partnership takes center stage around a booth mimicking a green classroom. Lessons include panels from the Biden Administration’s climate plans, US/Taiwan and regional collaborations, innovations, video games, and a Waste Not Why Not interview on green buildings.
