Three lectures addressing different aspects of climate change will start off the colloquium in April. Speakers will include Peter Höppe from Munich RE, Carson Fellow Anya Zilberstein, and Peter Weingart from the University of Bielefeld.

May's lectures will include a look at the charisma of a Japanese wild mushroom and the historic ranching landscapes of Northern Colombia. Carson Fellows Amy Hay, Shiho Satsuko, and Shawn van Ausdal, as well as Andreas Rechkemmer from the Global Risk Forum Davos will speak.
