Panel of noted authors will speak on the responsibility of higher education to address climate change on Sept. 13
by Kathleen McCoy |
Monday, Sept. 13, Noon-1 p.m.
UAA/Consortium Library, Room 307
Please join us for a panel and facilitated discussion with noted authors Terry Tempest Williams (University of Utah), Kathleen Dean Moore (Oregon State University) and Charles Wohlforth (The Whale and the Supercomputer) on the ethical responsibilities of higher education in addressing climate change and other critical environmental challenges.
The event will include an opportunity to purchase books by the authors, including a new anthology entitled Moral Ground: Ethical Responses to a Planet in Peril, which brings together the testimony of over eighty visionaries -- theologians and religious leaders, naturalists, scientists, elected officials, business leaders, activists, and writers -- to present a compelling call to honor our individual and collective moral responsibilities to the planet.
This event is co-sponsored by the Center for Advancing Faculty Excellence (CAFE) and the Bartlett Lecture Series. For more information, please contact Libby Roderick at aner@uaa.alaska.edu.
