Tearline (Tearline.mil) is an award-winning open source intelligence (OSINT) and open GEOINT public platform that brings together researchers in the geospatial sciences and open data research communities with members of the intelligence community to produce public open-source reports on topics of mutual benefit. Tearline creates the opportunities for submitters to reach a wide audience, connect with fellow experts, and access valuable resources to further the public understanding on those topics. This brief presentation discusses content on the platform and the advantages Tearline offers for conducting and sharing research.
Science communication is critical in all technical sciences but often not addressed explicitly. Dr. Jennifer Bernstein, Academic Liaison for the Breathrough Institute argues that in all fields framing climate as an ongoing but manageable problem, versus an apocalypse, will ultimately better serve the global goal of addressing climate change.

A reminder of the urgent need for a just and equitable shift to renewable energy to combat climate change that highlights how our fossil fuel-dependent energy and global political economies are deeply intertwined, and why it's crucial to embed principles of justice and equity in the emerging renewable energy economy from its inception. As the world recognizes the consequences of excessive fossil fuel consumption and climate change, there's a growing push to decarbonize and transition to renewable energy sources. This talk delves into the transformative potential of this renewable energy revolution to give a second chance to build a fairer world order.
