What is the relationship between global warming and poverty? In light of the Copenhagen summit and the widening gap between industrialized nations, developing nations, and the rest of the global South, this event will examine the political, economic, and cultural impacts of climate change. Michael Dorsey, Assistant Professor of Environmental Studies, Dartmouth University, and a prominent analyst of the political economy of biodiversity and environment justice, will speak with Ashley Dawson, Associate Professor of English, the Graduate Center, CUNY, along with other scholars and writers.
