FIU Geopolitical Summit
GLOBAL AND LOCAL IMPACT OF CLIMATE CHANGE

Featuring

David Wallace-Wells 
with 
Michael Grunwald and FIU experts
 
Monday, March 16, 2020
2 – 7:30pm
 
Earlene & Albert Dotson Pavilion | MARC Building
Florida International University
Modesto A. Maidique Campus (MMC)
11200 S.W. 8th Street | Miami, FL 33199


Critics say New York Times bestselling author David Wallace-Wells is an alarmist but many others say his book, “The Uninhabitable Earth,” is a long overdue antidote to climate complacency. FIU’s 7th Geopolitical Summit will examine the complex issues related to climate change, from global warming and sea level rise to more frequent and intense weather events like hurricanes and wildfires. Experts will discuss what this means globally and in South Florida, as well as solutions – from collective action for states and nations to what you and your family can do at home.

Reception and Book Signing

Patricia & Phillip Frost Art Museum (MMC)
6:15 – 7:30pm
 
After the event you are invited to attend a reception and book signing with David Wallace-Wells.

Guided tours will be offered of Transitional Nature: Hudson River School Paintings, an exhibition that celebrates the preservation of natural environments, especially during a time of increasing industrialization and technological advances.
