What US Congress now knows

As we mentioned 10 days ago, the US Congress had a briefing on Climate Change and Agriculture on 16 June 2010. The AAAS, which co-sponsored the briefing, uploaded some of the presentations, but the one that interested us most didn’t work. Fortunately the speaker, Professor Paul Gepts of UC Davis, is a good friend of this blog, and he let us have a proper copy of his presentation on Agricultural Biodiversity and Plant Breeding: Adapting to Global Climate Change.

Professor Gepts told us, “Please keep in mind the fact that this presentation had to be around 10 min long (and no more!) and that it had to address a general public of congressional staffers.” We think he did a pretty good job.

  1. At least today, I was able to download it using a right-click to “save link as” – which worked better than simply clicking on the link (in which case it was hung up half way though downloading). Nice presentation, Paul!
