“Writing Climate Futures”, A Conversation with Bharat Venkat (ISG), David Wallace-Wells, Jenny Offill, & Jonathan Blake

July 18, 2024 @ 11:30 am - 4:59 pm

Los Angeles Review of Books and The Berggruen Institute present Writing Climate Futures, featuring David Wallace-Wells, Jenny Offill, ISG faculty Bharat Venkat, and Jonathan Blake.

As our planet faces a climate crisis, questions about the role and efficacy of environmental writing assume greater urgency by the day. Through education, envisioning fictitious new worlds, and pushing forward the public discourse, writing holds the power to move the conversation we have around the future of our planet. LARB and The Berggruen Institute are thrilled to be joined by exciting voices in the climate movement from across genres to discuss how writing can enact change.
