SUMMARY:Gene Editing for the Climate: Biological Solutions for Curbing Gree
 nhouse Emissions
DESCRIPTION:Public investments in research and development that aim to cut 
 greenhouse gas emissions to date have focused heavily on physics and chemi
 stry. It’s time for biology to play a much bigger role. Recent breakthro
 ughs in gene editing are unlocking vast opportunities to mitigate climate 
 change. They range from enhancing the efficiency of photosynthesis to redu
 cing methane emissions from cows to optimizing crops for biofuel productio
 n\, and much more. A broad\, coordinated effort across the U.S. government
 \, in close collaboration with agriculture\, industry\, international part
 ners\, and the public should move these solutions forward.Join ITIF for a 
 presentation of a new report on gene-edited solutions for climate change a
 nd a panel discussion on the implications of these technologies.Speakers&n
