UW Professor Named To Task Force On Global Climate Change

What do you know about global climate change? UW Associate Professor of Anthropology Sarah Strauss knows quite a bit. She has been researching it for nearly 20 years. That is one of the reasons she has now been appointed to the American Anthropological Association's new nine-member task force on global climate change. She believes her field has an obligation to help people in local communities understand and communicate the possible risks global environmental change has in their own backyards. The Association has an objective of producing a guiding document that recognizes human contributions to global climate change-related issues.
