WE .. The People .. and COP31

COP31: Climate, Academia & Antalya publishes every Thursday, starting April 2nd, 2026, and continuing well beyond the opening of the world’s largest climate summit in November 2026.

It exists because this moment deserves serious, independent attention before it becomes history.

Our Focus: Not the science. The science is in good hands. What this newsletter covers is the opportunity: the rare, closing window in which academia, civil society, and a remarkable Mediterranean city can actively shape the narrative of climate change and COP31 rather than simply witness it.

Every edition asks what this moment demands of human institutions, of intellectual communities, and of a city that has been chosen to host the world’s most consequential conversation.

For readers who believe that ideas matter, that place matters, and that the space between a great moment and a wasted one is filled by people who paid attention early, this newsletter is worth your Thursday morning.

Join us. Think with us. Empower humanity to make the change it needs.
