Climate Policy Series at Humphrey School
MSI PI Gabe Chan (professor, HHH School of Public Policy) is helping to lead a new speaker series focusing on climate change. The Swain Climate Policy Series honors retired government, business, community, and U of M leader Thomas H. Swain, who is 100 years old this year. The goal of the series is to energize students and Minnesota citizens to work to solve the problem of climate change. The inaugural speaker for the series was former Vice President and climate activist Al Gore.
An interview with Professor Chan can be found on the website of Minnesota Public Radio’s Minnesota Now program: Centenarian Tom Swain and a Younger U Professor Kick Off a Climate Change Series.
Professor Chan uses MSI resources to run the weather model InMAP to study air-pollution impacts of climate change policies.
