Great Decisions is America's largest discussion on world affairs. Forsyth County Public Library and the University of North Georgia (UNG) will present information and lead discussions on a range of fascinating and timely geopolitical topics selected by the Foreign Policy Association. 

This week’s topic is International Cooperation on Climate Change presented by Dr. Bibek Chand.

The 2015 Paris Agreement established a UN-sponsored framework for negotiations on climate change and global warming. In subsequent COP meetings, experts and political leaders have come together seeking common cause for this growing global crisis. What is the future of these efforts, and what have they yielded? What is the U.S. role in fostering cooperation on climate change? In a divided country, what are the possible futures for American policy leadership?

For additional information and resources on International Cooperation on Climate Change, please visit the Foreign Policy Association website.

Great Decisions topics for 2025 include:

January 8: American Foreign Policy at a Crossroads

January 15: U.S. Changing Leadership of the World Economy

January 22: U.S.-China Relations

January 29: India: Between China, the West, and the Global South

February 5: International Cooperation on Climate Change

February 12: The Future of NATO and European Security

February 19: AI and American National Security

February 26: American Foreign Policy in the Middle East: Taking Stock and Looking Ahead

Each discussion is open to the public and registration is not required.
