Dear Chapman Climate Colleagues:
We are all aware our atmosphere has reached 400 PPM CO2. We are well on the way towards possible catastrophic climate change. We need multiple actions on many fronts. The Chapman Meeting can orchestrate some very important steps – please come and contribute. Forgive the repetition – WE WE WE! But this has to be a community action. WE have to act now!
We are organizing a conference writing team to develop a consensus report including a series of resolutions that address the ways forward on climate change communication. We are looking forward to your active participation in the discussions. The program has many oral and poster presentations AND we have created a series of formal and informal discussion periods that will allow all delegates to (i) participate in the discussions and (ii) contribute to the consensus report on ways and means to move forward on climate change actions.
Registration for the Chapman Climate Communication Meeting is online. Please register ASAP! We invite your participation in the meeting whether you have submitted an abstract or not. May 24th is the registration deadline on the webpage. Here is the link:
