Environmental Justice
one scientist
one humanist
one policy expert
one topic...
not your ordinary talk.
Sponsored by the Environmental Studies Program at the University of Colorado at Boulder and the Center for Science and Technology Policy Research
Environmental problems are interdisciplinary by nature. They jump fences. They cross boundaries. They don’t respect borders. So what does happen when you mix three scholars from different backgrounds and ask them to comment on one topic? Join us and see.
All sessions will be held in the CIRES Auditorium on Mondays 3:00 - 5:00 PM. Refreshments starting at 3:00 pm. Talks/panels begin at 3:30 PM
