SUMMARY:Climate and Global Change: What to Expect
DESCRIPTION:Climate and Global Change: What to Expect and How to Build Resilient Infrastructure and Lives Throughout the World. \nClimate and weather extremes have been called an “existential threat” to life as we know it.  What can we expect as the associated extreme weather and changing weather patterns threaten infrastructure and lives throughout the world?  What opportunities might exist for the role of transnational organizations such as the UN to address this crisis? Finally\, what about the EU\, China\, India\, the US\, and their leadership roles? Prof. Dev Niyogi will present a program on what we\, and the world\, can expect in the decades ahead\, and possible options for our response. \n \nDr. Dev Niyogi is the William Stamps Farish Chair with the Department of Earth and Planetary Sciences at the Jackson School of Geosciences. He is also part of initiatives such as Planet Texas 2050\, Good Systems for AI and Smart Cities\, and the Oden Institute Computational Engineering and Sciences and Center for Space Research\, Energy and Earth Resources.  Dr. Dev Niyogi is also an Emeritus Professor at Purdue University\, Indiana\, where he was a Professor in Atmospheric Sciences and served as the State Climatologist for Indiana.  He has also worked with the United Nations and UNESCO.
