CWS Sponsors Climate Change Forum

We are pleased to be co-sponsors of the upcoming Climate Change Forum at Marylhurst University near Portland on October 6. Additional sponsors include the Columbia River Inter-Tribal Fish Commission and the Oregon Chapter of the American Meteorological Society.

Keynote speaker is Anthony Strawa, a microphysicist at NASA's Ames Research Center in California's Silicon Valley. Presenters will include Washington state climatologist Nicholas Bond and Andy Harris of the Oregon Health & Science University Medical School. Other speakers from Oregon State University will address topics ranging from climate change models to resiliency needed in coastal communities.

"We're bringing together some wonderful, engaging experts who come at climate change from unique perspectives," says Greg Dardis, interim chair of Marylhurst's Department of Science & Mathematics. "Our goal is to create a day that gets many more of us thinking more broadly about the impacts global warming has on our lives, and of our obligations as citizens of our local and world community to concentrate our energies in ways that will make a meaningful, positive difference."
