Climate change: let's stop pretending we don't know | Gianluca Lentini | TEDxVicenza
Climate change is a measured and measurable reality, tangible and observable, and 5,000 years of climatology history tell us how we have become increasingly aware of the laws that determine it. Now more than ever, we can no longer pretend not to know that humanity has changed the Earth's climate and that it is up to humanity to act against global warming. Gianluca Lentini is a geophysicist specializing in climatology and has been dedicated to climate change and climatology for over 15 years.
He has addressed climate change using various approaches and methodologies, working with meteorological data to study trends and future projections and participating in national and international projects on environmental sustainability. He is the author and scientific editor of the children's book Gaia. Planet Earth and the Changing Climate (Feltrinelli, 2013, 2019), and the author of the book Climate Stories. From Mesopotamia to Exoplanets (Hoepli, 2021).
He has given numerous conferences on climate change at schools, universities, and associations. In 2022, he participated as an expert in the climatology episode of the RAI program dedicated to the History of Science. He works as a researcher and project manager for Poliedra (Polimi), focusing on international projects on environmental sustainability and sustainable mobility. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
