Abstract

Today I would like to address the topics of global warming and water resources. I talked about this topic ten years ago, when Nagoya University opened its Graduate School of Environmental Studies. The issue has become more serious over the last ten years, and it is an appropriate theme for the conference. This is the main reason why I decided to talk about this topic today.

Syukuro Manabe, Senior Meteorologist at Princeton University, Inductee to the Earth Hall of Fame Kyoto, and Distinguished Invited Professor at Nagoya University.
