baltimoresun.com - Bay & Environment: Climate expert at Hopkins

Sports Illustrated

For those who want some hard-hitting science before their Monday night football, stop by Johns Hopkins University Sept. 24 at 5 p.m. to hear a distinguished atmospheric scientist explain the human causes and responses to climate change.

Ralph J. Cicerone, president of the National Academy of Sciences, led a 2001 study requested by President Bush of the then-current state of climate change and its impact on the environment and human health. His free public lecture, at Hodson Hall on the Homewood campus, comes the same week that President Bush hosts an international meeting in Washington on climate change.

For more information about the lecture, call 410-516-7136. For a thumbnail bio of Cicerone, go here.

About the bloggers

Rona Kobell reports on the Chesapeake Bay, and in her seven years with The Sun, she's visited clam farms in Virginia, a peeler pen on Taylors Island and a small market on Smith Island that serves what many people consider the best crab cake in the world (to judge for yourself, head to the Drum Point Market in Tylerton). Rona enjoys hanging out with her husband and daughter.

Tom Pelton writes about the environment and has been at The Sun for 10 years. He lives in the city with his wife, two daughters, and an exotic ecosystem that involves a cat, hamsters, hermit crabs, cacti, running shoes, drums, guitar, violins, mild cheeses and strong opinions.

Tim Wheeler writes about growth and base-realignment for The Sun. A reporter and editor here since 1985, the West Virginia native has spent most of his adult life around the bay. He lives in Catonsville, one of Baltimore's older, walkable suburbs.
