Water, Earth, Air, Fire

How Georgia Tech researchers are helping the climate system.

It’s no secret that the climate is in flux lately — reading the news or checking the weather forecast shows increased wildfires or floods. The climate is a complex system where a temperature increase can degrade air quality. For the world to become more resilient to these shifts requires interdisciplinary teams to better understand how to improve climate mitigation strategies.

From across Georgia Tech, experts come together to find solutions. Researchers are leaders in every area, from urban planners collecting highly detailed air quality data to scientists studying fossils to better understand Earth’s past climates. Georgia Tech is on the forefront of innovations that can help the planet we know and love.
