Global warming is an artificially polarized issue, where the public perception is that either there is no such phenomenon or that it is an abject disaster. Neither is true, says Professor Michaels.
We invite campus and community members to this forum where Professor Michaels will shed more light on how to reduce the effects of global warming in Southern California.
The program is funded with support from Associated Students Inc. and the Business Interclub Council. |
