ROUNDTABLE: “Global Warming Discourse, Politics, and Culture”

12/7/2007 10:00 AM - 12:00 PM   
The ACGCC will host an interdisciplinary roundtable discussion with Professors Josh Schimel (Ecology, Evolution, and Marine Biology) and Eric R.A.N. Smith (Political Science). The topic of the roundtable will be "Global Warming Discourse, Politics, and Culture." We will discuss the IPCC Climate Assessment and related issues, such as changing public perceptions of global warming and the often conflicting rhetorics of climate change science, politics, and popular culture. For more information on the IPCC Climate Assessment, please see the 2007 reports created by the IPCC's three working groups:
     Working Group I "The Physical Science Basis of Climate Change": IPCC WG1 Report
     Working Group II "Impacts, Adaptation, and Vulnerability": IPCC WGII website.
     Working Group III "Mitigation of Climate Change": IPCC WG III Home
Location SH 2617
