As a lawyer, scholar, author, and climate warrior, Alan Miller has repeatedly been in the room where it happened: where policies on climate change and ozone depletion have been made and negotiated – often making a difference. Starting with his contributions to the successful protection of the ozone layer in the late ‘70s, his career included directing a center on global environmental policy at the University of Maryland and 16 years in the World Bank supervising climate finance and participating in the global climate negotiations. Forty years on, his work today as an author and teacher draws on the wisdom gained from his unique experience forging solutions to the climate crisis.
