Tonight the Secret Science Club is back at the Bell House. Don’t miss Global warming expert James Hansen of NASA as he rips the roof off the carbon crisis.
Too hot to miss . . .
James Hansen, climatologist and long-time director of NASA’s Goddard Institute for Space Studies, has been studying human-caused climate change for more than three decades and was the first scientist to testify on the threat of growing carbon emissions before the U.S. Congress. Now, as the world’s leaders prepare to meet in Copenhagen to discuss a global emissions treaty, Dr. Hansen warns the Earth’s climate may be approaching one of three “tipping points,” from which there is no return.
In his first book, Storms of My Grandchildren: The Truth About the Coming Climate Catastrophe and Our Last Chance to Save Humanity, Dr. Hansen raises concerns that current proposals to reduce heat-causing emissions would do too little and offers bold new strategies for solving the global warming dilemma.
