The Sustainability Institute on Campus will be presenting a Symposium on Global Climate Change tomorrow Wednesday, January 30 from 9am to 7:30 pm in the Hotel and Dixon Conference Center. This event is in conjunction with the nationwide Focus the Nation symposium. Throughout the day faculty from a number of colleges on campus will be making presentations. Two that definitely should not be missed are Christian Dagg’s and Michael Robinson’s presentations. Professor Dagg will be discussing Solutions to Climate Change from 3:15-4:30 pm. Professor Robinson will be making a presentation on the Future of the Gulf Coast from 1-2pm. Go over to the Hotel and Dixon Conference Center and support the CADC faculty as they discuss the Global Climate Change Problem and It’s Solutions.

The Institutes Rationale: Truly non-partisan discussions about the challenges, opportunities, and solutions associated with climate change are now occurring at all political levels in the country from local to national. This is an opportunity for educators to take a leadership role, and catalyze a process which indeed will “Focus the Nation.” For the last 150 years we have been engaged in an unprecedented natural experiment, drastically altering the basic nature of the planet’s climate control system. Focus the Nation is engaging the country with the question: How far can we let that experiment go?
