ROBERT F. CAHALAN
"The Climate Change Challenge: Reason for Hope"

Bob Cahalan is head of the Climate & Radiation branch at NASA/Goddard Space
Flight Center in Maryland. He will have just given a talk on climate at
Harvard, but will address with us his own ethical and psychological
responses to the crisis rather than the "science".

Bob writes: "Global disruptions of Earth's climate and biosphere are leading
to loss of biodiversity and ecosystem collapses, depletion of fish and
forests, loss of fresh water, ocean acidification and species extinctions.
What can be done to address these challenges? Can individuals actually make
a difference? Is there a legitimate reason for hope?"
