to address the climate crisis from an astronomical perspective. This is a fully virtual symposium, with which we want to provide a perspective on sustainability from experts in the field as well as offer a platform for discussion regarding this extremely important
topic. The symposium covers half days from Monday, 28 November, through Friday, 2 December, covering all time zones.</p>
