Increasingly, climate change and environmental challenges have brought the perspectives of younger generations to the fore, as well as the consideration of how future generations will be affected by decisions. These perspectives offer a unique lens on environmental challenges, where many of the effects of decisions now will continue to be relevant long into the future.
To support the link between environmental science and these crucial perspectives, the IES hosted a panel discussion to highlight the importance of young voices and the perspective of future generations as we consider our approach to the environment.
