Bradford Seminar: “Forging Just Futures: Solutions-based Science to Address the Climate Gap”
Rachel Morello-Frosch, professor of Environmental Science, Policy and Management for UC Berkeley, will present “Forging Just Futures: Solutions-based Science to Address the Climate Gap.” This seminar will be held in-person (PUID holders only) and available via livestream (open to all).
Morello-Frosch is an environmental health scientist, epidemiologist, and professor at UC Berkeley’s School of Public Health and Department of Environmental Science, Policy and Management. For over 25 years, her research has examined structural determinants of environmental health and understanding how co-exposures to chemical and non-chemical stressors drive health inequities. Much of her work has examined this question in the context of exposures to ambient air pollution, drinking water contaminants, prenatal environmental chemical exposures, climate change, and effects on perinatal and developmental outcomes. In addition to using community-engaged approaches in her work, she also collaborates with regulatory agencies to develop science-policy tools to assess the cumulative impacts of multiple environmental and social factors to inform regulatory decision-making and advance environmental justice. Morello-Frosch is an elected member of the National Academy of Medicine, a 2025-26 Radcliffe-Salata Climate Justice Fellow, and served on the Biden Administration’s White House Environmental Justice Advisory Council.
She publishes regularly in both scholarly journals and popular publications including Nature, Nature Climate Change, The New York Times, The Washington Post, The Globe and Mail and The Boston Review.
This event is part of the David Bradford Energy and Environmental Policy Seminar Series organized by the Center for Policy Research on Energy and the Environment (C-PREE) in the Princeton School of Public and International Affairs and co-sponsored by the High Meadows Environmental Institute (HMEI).
