Climate [Scam] and Society - The Earth Institute at Columbia University
...To meet this challenge, The Earth Institute has formed the Columbia Climate Center, which seeks to integrate the many climate-related activities and research efforts at Columbia. The center integrates studies in the natural and physical sciences, engineering, socioeconomics and political science to improve humankind’s capacity to understand, predict, and respond to climate variability and change. The main goals of the Columbia Climate Center are to:

* coordinate climate science research at Columbia University to share information and promote synergy between the climate groups
* delineate mitigation and adaptation options so societies can respond proactively to anticipated impacts of climate change and variability, and
* develop a framework at Columbia University to provide policy analysis and advice to stakeholders and policymakers.
