Cornell University, for Fall 2009, is sponsoring a speaker series  
entitled: *Sustainable Earth, Energy, and Environmental Systems*.  The  
series is co-sponsored by t*he Department of Earth and Atmospheric  
Sciences* and the* Cornell Center for a Sustainable Future*. It is  
designed especially for freshmen and sophomores, but we are extending  
the invitation to all undergraduates and members of the Cornell and  
Ithaca College communities, local high school students, and the  
greater Ithaca area.
The speakers are researchers from all over the Cornell campus speaking  
on topics of climate change and its potential environmental impacts on  
land and sea, and the challenges to meet our needs for food, water,  
and energy. Included in the topics is a session on local successes at  
Cornell University and Ithaca College.
For more information please contact: Louise P. McGarry
