Join The Meadows Center for Water and the Environment at the Climate Science: The Good, The Bad, and The Wicked conference on September 7 as we set the record straight about the realities of the climate crisis in Texas and delve into the less well-known aspects of the complex, “wicked” climate problems we face today. From sweltering droughts to devastating floods, the impacts of climate change are only becoming greater in our super-sized state. The conference brings together practitioners, academics, policy makers, businesses, and non-profit leaders from across the state to explore the unique challenges and opportunities the state faces in the fight against climate change. Keynote speaker Michael E. Mann, renowned climate scientist, science communicator, book author, and Presidential Distinguished Professor of Earth and Environmental Science at the University of Pennsylvania, opens the event with a special preview of his forthcoming book, sharing lessons about how Earth’s past can help us survive the climate crisis. Sessions following the keynote address feature leaders at the forefront of diverse fields who will discuss crucial knowledge gaps to support constructive environmental interventions and policy and how to stimulate more interdisciplinary collaboration. The conference will be held at the LBJ Grand Ballroom in the LBJ Student Center at the Texas State University campus in San Marcos, Texas. Space is limited, so early registration is highly encouraged. Registration closes Sept. 3. #meadowsclimateTX
