LACIS Lunchtime Lecture: "Lakes rising: A climate change mystery in the Caribbean"

During the past ten years, the surface of two Caribbean lakes rose ten meters. Ten meters straight up. Entire towns sank beneath the water’s surface. And nobody knows why. Natl Geographic and the Pulitzer Center on Crisis Reporting sent journalist Jacob Kushner to investigate the mystery behind the rise of these two lakes. In this presentation, Jacob will argue that it’s urgent for journalists to do a far better job of explaining climate change to the general public.
