September 28, 2007

In his Annual Address to the University Community, Rutgers President Richard McCormick highlighted Rutgers' recent climate activities as an example of the university at its finest. As McCormick stated, "Climate change is not just a scientific challenge, although it certainly is that. It is also a political challenge that is taking us far outside our comfort zone as a society and as a global community." McCormick's recognition of the importance of climate research reflects the growing momentum surrounding both climate and energy issues at Rutgers.
