The Copenhagen summit in December 2009 is crucial to limit the global warming of our planet. Do you want to know the latest scientific evidence on the speed, scale, and the consequences of climate change? Are you interested in new technologies and policies to combat climate change?  

We would like to offer you the unique opportunity to participate in a World Science Forum 2009 satellite event – Conference “Facing the Future: the Climate Summit at Copenhagen and beyond”, organised jointly by the Swedish Embassy, Central European University, the Hungarian Academy of Sciences and the Ombudsman for Future Generations in Hungary.

In the afternoon, you can participate in parallel workshops on Science, Technology, Policy or “Thinking about the Future”. For more information and registration please visit the conference website.
