The second in a series of free public lectures on climate change is scheduled for Wednesday, April 12th at 4:00 pm, in Steele Hall 007 on the campus of Dartmouth College. The featured speaker will be Mrs. Jackie Richter-Menge of the Cold Regions Research and Engineering Laboratory (CRREL) in Hanover, NH. |
|
Mrs. Richter’s research focuses on arctic sea ice cover and how changes in the arctic impact future climate-related scenarios in the rest of the world. She is eminently knowledgeable, an eloquent speaker, and presents a compelling argument for greater concern about climate change. Her presentation is entitled “A POLAR BEAR’S PERSPECTIVE ON CLIMATE CHANGE”. |
|
These presentations are co- sponsored by Dartmouth’s Department of Earth Sciences and the SIERRA CLUB. Each lecture “stands alone”; i.e., it is not necessary to have attended earlier sessions to appreciate later ones. While the program’s speakers are scientists with recognized expertise in the subject matter, the presentations will not be overly technical but rather are intended for a general audience. Steele Hall is located just east of Baker-Berry Library, across College Street from the Church of Christ. The lecture hall 007 is located on the ground floor. Certificates of participation will be available for area educators. |
