Ken, No readings, but some excellent context from participating this week at COP 22. Wednesday was very grim, but the work went on. We met today with the director of the USDA climate office - when asked about the future, he indicated he has worked for the federal government for 25 years, has been through many transitions and worked under many different administrations. It was great to hear him tick off the multiple legislative climate change acts that his program is required to implement such as the global change research program - and from his perspective, federal government climate change programs will continue, even if temporarily altered.
It was also comforting to receive condolences as an American from Strangers across the globe about the outcome of the election. And to hear about the thousands of programs that will carry on. We are a strong and resilient global climate change community. I have posted photos on Facebook if you want to check some out. Best Regards, Allison M.

Please reply directly to me at [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> and I will share a list back to the full group. Many of our students are trying to figure out what this means, for the planet and their own life and career choices, and it would be great to give them some historical context. I need it, too.
