MIT Climate Grand Challenges

scientists studying plants, animals

In 2022, MIT selected  five flagship projects in its first-ever Climate Grand Challenges competition. These multiyear projects were initiated to define a dynamic research agenda focused on unraveling some of the toughest unsolved climate problems and bringing high-impact, science-based solutions to the world on an accelerated basis.

Representing the most promising concepts to emerge from the two-year competition, the five flagship projects represent an important foundation for the work of the Climate Project and continue to receive funding and resources from the Office of the Vice President for Energy and Climate to develop their ideas and  transform them into practical solutions at scale.
