Caio Brighenti’s talk is on climate change and carbon emissions. He seeks to educate and inform people on what exactly climate change is, why it is happening, the consequences of it, and what we as citizens can do about it.

Caio Brighenti (@caiobrighenti) was born in the city of São Paulo, in Brazil. However, at the age of 7 he moved to Michigan, in the United States, with his family. It was there he learned how to speak English, and now considers himself fully fluent in it. About 3 years later, he moved back to Brazil, but to the beach city of Santos. After 4 years in Santos, he moved yet again, this time to Buenos Aires, Argentina. He has been there ever since, and it was there he learned to speak Spanish. He considers himself to be fluent in Spanish, but believes his Spanish is not as good as his English or Portuguese.
