Miami on the Mind
We’re writing this refreshed newsletter from Washington, D.C. and New York,
but mentally we are in Miami, where [2]Aspen Ideas: Climate is set to kick
off in just five days. If you missed it, we just announced the full
[3]programming schedule, and there’s still time to buy tickets. Attendees
and speakers include U.S. Secretary of the Interior [4]Deb Haaland, science
educator [5]Bill Nye, “Today” show anchor [6]Al Roker, and many more.
It’s been a busy winter at the Aspen Institute. Let's dive into some of
the work around the community.
