Science: Climate and Policy

Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study's science symposium, "Something in the Air: Climate Change, Science and Policy," takes a cross-disciplinary approach to the topic of climate and policy. Atmospheric and environmental scientists, engineers, archaeologists, and scholars of public health, economics, and government come together to address and debate topics fundamental to our understanding of the science of climate change and the policies that result. These issues are considered in relation to the recent UN Climate Change Conferences and the worldwide economic downturn.
