The News
Earlier this month, this blog had a posting about the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. The University of Colorado Graduate School of Public Affairs has become the home of a project that could significantly influence United States policy toward global warming. The school has received a $500,000 grant to create a climate action plan for the next President of the United States. The project will provide a menu of policies, programs and legislative actions to help the next Administration jump-start federal leadership on climate change, including actions the president can take in his or her first 100 days in office. Sen. Gary Hart, Wirth Chair professor, serves as a project chair and principal investigator. “This project addresses one of the greatest imperatives of our time–global warming," Hart said. "We’re proud to have this be a project sponsored by the University of Colorado at Denver and Health Sciences Center.”
