The Wilkes Center for Climate Science & Policy

The Wilkes Center Speaker Series provides a welcoming venue for scientists, researchers, and policymakers to discuss challenges and solutions for the defining issue of our age - climate change. The series seeks to create a platform for distinguished researchers to share insights, to foster meaningful opportunities for dialogue and collaboration, and to enhance awareness and motivate effective policy action.

Every fall and spring semester, the Wilkes Center will leverage its on-campus partnerships to deliver speakers on a broad range of topics related to climate science and policy including the impacts of climate change on ecosystems and biodiversity, the role of renewable energy in mitigating greenhouse gas emissions, and the latest research on climate modeling and prediction.
