The third annual UO Climate Change Research Symposium will facilitate discussion and the exchange of ideas between faculty and students conducting research on climate change at the University of Oregon on Wednesday, April 16, in the EMU Fir Room.

The keynote speaker for this year’s event will be Kate Larsen, director of Climate and Energy at the Rhodium group, former deputy associate director for Energy and Climate Change for the White House Council on Environmental Quality and former climate change negotiator for the U.S. State Department.

Professors and students in the arts, humanities, natural sciences and social sciences will examine this global crisis during the symposium. It will bring together those whose problem-driven research, literary work and works of art transcend traditional disciplinary boundaries.

All faculty and both graduate and undergraduate students are invited to attend. For a tentative schedule, details about keynote speakers and further information, please click here or email Ronald Mitchell at rmitchel@uoregon.edu.
