Eli Gitter-Dentz, Nicholas Wu, Ajani Stella, Daniel Shneider, Gabriel Gitter-Dentz, Kevin Zhou, Adam Rudt Season 2 Episode 3

Julien Dossier is an expert in climate policy and the co-author of the 2017 carbon neutrality plan for Paris. He founded Quattrolibri, a consulting firm that designs low carbon transition strategies for clients. His current project is a book and a program, Renaissance Ecologique, for which he created a modern version of a 14th century Italian fresco to give us a view of what an ecological Renaissance might look like.
