Join the San Diego World Affairs Council for a special event featuring opening remarks from Ambassador Marc Knapper (Vietnam) and Ambassador Brian McFeeters (ret., Malaysia) as part of the US-ASEAN Business Council’s Ambassadors’ Tour. They will share timely insights on the evolving U.S.-ASEAN relationship and regional developments. The program will also feature a keynote address by UCSD Professor David G. Victor, who will examine the long-term global implications of recent shifts in U.S. climate policy under the Trump administration. A thought-provoking evening of diplomacy, policy, and dialogue. These are truly turbulent times…on an historic scale. Huge policy changes regarding US decarbonization, green energy investment, and global warming/climate research are being largely eclipsed in the media by tariff news and the geopolitical transformation of the global order being driven by the Trump 2.0 White House. Nevertheless, Trump 2.0 environmental policy changes are likely to be consequential – for the US and the planet. Those changes may also come to have geopolitical implications. New global leadership may emerge. Furthermore, some Trump 2.0 shifts seem likely to find ready audiences in other parts of the world. Drawing on his deep experience and awareness, David G. Victor will discuss the impacts and consequences of US policy changes toward global warming and decarbonization. Beyond discussing the impact of the of the first five months of Trump 2.0, David will step back and take the long view…across the arc of a decade or two – or three. What has happened…and where do we go from here? What will be the impact of the Trump tariffs? Will geo-engineering emerge as a tool for addressing climate change? Will new meaning be given to an old US Marine Corps proverb: “Improvise, Adapt, and Overcome”? Following Dr. Victor's presentation there will be ample time for audience questions.
