Elizabeth Kolbert traveled from Alaska to Greenland and visited top
scientists to get to the heart of the debate over global warming.
Growing out of her groundbreaking three-part series on climate change
in The New Yorker, her new book brings the environment into the
consciousness of the American people and asks what, if anything, can
be done to save our planet. Book signing to follow.
Event is free thanks to the generosity of the Lowell Institute.
Seating is limited. Free seating tickets are available to the general
public in the Museum lobby beginning at 5:45 p.m. on the evening of
the lecture. First come, first served.
