Metcalf Institute’s 2023 Annual Public Lecture Series

Metcalf Institute is celebrating 25 years of bringing science to the conversation! Join us throughout June 2023 for a weekly dose of inspiration and education as part of our Annual Public Lecture Series. Each week in June, we’ll bring you a free, virtual talk with an inspired thought leader, grappling with real-world issues of climate change and the clean energy transition. Together, we’ll explore the latest research and collaborative efforts to respond to our changing environment.

We’re doing things differently this year! We’re holding our Annual Lecture Series throughout the month of June, with the keystone Leeson Lecture held both in-person and via Zoom on June 15, 2023, during the in-person Annual Science Immersion Workshop for Journalists. Join us every Thursday afternoon in June for a thought-provoking, inspiring lecture on the most pressing energy and climate issues of our time.

All lectures are free and will be livestreamed via Zoom. Limited in-person seating is available for the June 15 Leeson Lecture. Please register for each event via the links below.
