In association with the Provost's Office, the MIT Environmental Research Council (ERC) is pleased to present this Forum for the greater MIT community as a showcase to complement the release of its report "Implementing the MIT Global Environment Initiative: The Science of Living on Earth." Speakers will include the Provost, members of the ERC and other faculty engaged in research with environmental applications. Ample opportunity for audience questions and comments will be provided, culminating with an hour of open discussion to end the day.
