John Calderazzo, Co-Director of Changing Climates @ CSU said, "Focus the Nation is a jolt of energy that all of us need so we may consider the difficult issues around climate change. These two days of talks aimed at students will offer a great way to see the many approaches to climate change problems and solutions that are moving forward at CSU from the angle of so many different academic disciplines. It’s good to remember that the core of the word 'universe' appears inside the word 'university,' meaning that a large research university like CSU is primed like almost nowhere else to look everywhere for solutions to one of the most vexing problems faced by the earth."

SueEllen Campbell, Co-Director of Changing Climates @ CSU, remarked, “You can learn a lot from listening to experts.  But sometimes there's no substitute for books if you really want to understand a topic as multi-dimensional as climate change.  We're lucky at CSU to have an excellent library for learning about the many aspects of this issue.  And the more we understand, the better we can feel about taking action."
