Event Description

Restoring Water Cycles to Reverse Global Warming

Even with elevated greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, water can cool the biosphere and address destructive feedbacks in the climate system.

Friday – Sunday, October 16-18, 2015
A conference at Tufts University
Medford, Massachusetts
Sponsored by the Tufts Institute of the Environment

Water is a planetary thermostat, and even with elevated greenhouse gases in the atmosphere it can cool the biosphere and address destructive feedbacks in the climate system. In this conference, we will pay particular attention to water's role in regulating climate through its capacity to store, move and transfer more heat than any other natural compound. We will carefully examine the water cycle, how we can have a dramatic positive influence on it, and in so doing successfully address drought, floods, soil health, food production and climate.
