If you are a state agency employee, legislative staffer or interested citizen who wants to better understand climate change, then ºÙºÙÊÓƵ has a lunch invitation for you.
Beginning Thursday, Jan. 17, 2008, university experts will come to downtown Sacramento to teach you what they teach their students on campus about the science, technology and policy aspects of climate change, and its impacts on California.
The seminars are free. Lunch will be provided at a low cost. Discussions will follow each talk. Perhaps best of all: No quizzes!
ºÙºÙÊÓƵ will present the 12 talks every other Thursday through June 19 at noon in the California Environmental Protection Agency (Cal EPA) building, 1001 I St., Sacramento. Although the topics will be presented in a logical sequence, each talk is intended to stand on its own, and missing one or more will not detract from understanding the others.
A detailed schedule of speakers and topics is online at: .
The seminar series is sponsored by:
- ºÙºÙÊÓƵ Department of Land, Air and Water Resources (LAWR)
- ºÙºÙÊÓƵ John Muir Institute of the Environment
- ºÙºÙÊÓƵ Air Quality Research Center
- University of California Institute for Research on Climate Change and Its Societal Impacts
It is organized by Terry Nathan, ºÙºÙÊÓƵ professor of atmospheric science in LAWR, and Phil Duffy, climate scientist in LAWR and director of the UC Institute for Research on Climate Change and Its Societal Impacts.
