Climate change is one of the biggest challenges we face globally and there is a need for climate action. We are beginning to see its consequences, and they are expected to be much greater in the years to come. The rise in the level of the oceans, the air quality, climate refugees or the infectious diseases transmission are just some examples of the impact that climate change can have on current generations, but mainly on the next.

Aspen Institute España, together with Radio Nacional de España, develops a space for reflection in which a diverse group of Aspen Alumni meets to escape from an increasingly polarized political environment and discuss ideas for action. These programs are directed and moderated by Íñigo Alfonso, Aspen España Fellow, and are broadcast on “Las mañanas de RNE”.
