SUMMARY:IASC's Action Group on Carbon Footprint (AGCF) seeks your input!
LOCATION:Online
DESCRIPTION:We need your input on how IASC should mitigate climate change!\nAcknowledgi
 ng the link between anthropogenic carbon emissions and rapid changes in the
  Arctic, including the Arctic amplification of climate change, IASC has rec
 ently convened an Action Group on Carbon Footprint (AGCF). The remit of the
  AGCF is to facilitate a full organisational response to the climate crisis
  and to explore ways to minimise the carbon footprint of IASC-related activ
 ities themselves. As an organisation promoting research and transnational a
 ccess in the Arctic, we have a duty to mitigate the impacts of our activiti
 es, as well as to lead the way.\nWe wish to take into account the broad per
 spectives, needs and requirements of both researchers and wider stakeholder
 s in our recommendations. With this in mind, we are holding an event to lau
 nch our consultation with the community. To maximise the opportunity for in
 put, we will run this community event twice, on\n• 08:00 – 10:00 hrs GMT, W
