GREENHOUSE 2007 is a unique opportunity to hear the latest findings in climate science, and discuss the implications for Australia and the region.
The conference will focus on projections for the future; the use of probabilities for risk management; the impact climate change will have on human activity; and changing perceptions of climate change.
There will be many examples of industry and government approaches to tackling climate change, as well as presentations on the latest Australian and international science findings.
This high-profile, prestigious international event is designed for representatives from industry, research organisations, government, and the community.
GREENHOUSE 2007 follows the highly successful GREENHOUSE 2005: Action on Climate Change, held in Melbourne in November 2005.
An international workshop examining future climate change research directions beyond the IPCC's Fourth Assessment Report will be held in association with GREENHOUSE 2007.
Approximately 50 of the world's leading climate researchers will attend, including John Church, Ann Henderson-Sellers, Phil Jones, Jerry Meehl and Kevin Trenberth.
The meeting is being organised by the World Climate Research Programme, the International Geosphere–Biosphere Program and the Global Climate Observing System.
