Badger Talk - Middleton: "Are we all doomed? An Optimist's Guide on how to reduce the harmful effects of climate change"

There is no doubt that human-caused climate change is occurring. But, some of the worst case scenarios are overblown, over-hyped, or bad science. Ankur Desai will review what we know to date about climate change impacts in Wisconsin and the work his lab and others have done to understand how we can mitigate or adapt to these effects while also preserving and improving our quality of life.

Ankur Desai is a Professor of Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences at the UW–Madison.
