Welcome to Aalto Climate Policy Club!
Aalto Climate Policy Club is a new, informal forum where Aaltonians can learn about climate policies: How they are made and how we can have an impact on them.

- What should I know about the upcoming climate policies?
- How might climate policies impact my line of research?
- How are the climate policies made at Finnish, EU, and global level?
