The Government of South Australia, in association with the Environment Institute are hosting James Hansen at a public event.
James Hansen is considered one of the world's leading scientists on climate issues. Thirty years ago, he created one of the world's first climate models and is sometimes referred to as "father" or "grandfather of global warming". He is a member of the U.S. National Academy of Sciences, Adjunct Professor at Columbia University and head of the NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies in New York City.
Best known for his research in the field of climatology, a watershed testimonial to the US congress in 1988 on global warming and his advocacy to limit the impacts of climate change, James will be speaking at a public event in Adelaide about his new book Storms of My Grandchildren, covering his views on climate change and obtaining real solutions to these problems.
