To combat global warming through awareness and action, Colgate will participate in the National Teach-In on Thursday.

Faculty and students will engage in a series of panel discussions, presentations, and workshops covering everything from scientific developments for mitigation to social implications of climate change.

Building off the success of last year's Focus the Nation, the National Teach-In also will be part of a network of events occurring at thousands of colleges, universities, high schools, middle schools, faith groups, civic organizations, and businesses all over the country.
