The Earth Institute's Center for Environmental Sustainability presents "Scenarios for a Sustainable World" with Cary Krosinsky, Executive Director, Network for Sustainable Financial Markets (NSFM). Climate change, habitat loss, and population growth are dramatically reshaping life on Earth in ways that could result in irreversible changes to our planet, known as ‘tipping points.’ Learn the causes behind these issues and examine future scenarios that can help us best avoid potential global environmental tipping points.

Detailed descriptions of Earth Institute's internships(mostly graduate) for the Spring 2013 semester are posted at the EI blog.
