The Teale Lectures offer the university and local community new ways to think about nature and our interactions with the environment, in six installments through the academic year (normally three in fall and three in spring). Climate, perhaps not surprisingly, is a frequent topic of consideration by the A-list speakers. This year Anthony Leiserowitz, Director of the Yale Project on Climate Change Communication, will speak on Climate Change in the American Mind (Nov 20). In the spring Seth Borenstein, National Science Writer for the Associated Press, takes on issues related to reporting climate science (Feb 26). There are also two speakers considering the green-ness of cities and two more on ecological concerns in a globalizing world.
Check out the full schedule and look for the posters, which will be located around the department and campus.
