Event Details

For the past two years, Luther College adjunct faculty Philip Iverson and Iowa State University professor emeritus Jim Iversen have been compiling information about the science and measurement of climate change and will present a lecture on their research at 3 p.m. Thursday, Dec. 13, in the Mott Room of the Dahl Centennial Union.

This event, titled “The Science of Measurement and Climate Change,” is open to the public with no charge for admission.

Jim and Phil Iversen’s presentation will focus on the science and measurements of climate change, using carbon dioxide and temperature data collected from polar ice core samples. These data, along with contemporary measurements, provides compelling evidence that both the concentration of carbon dioxide and global average temperature have been rising at an increasing rate since the 1950’s, and that today’s levels of CO2 and global temperature are higher than that at any time going back through the last four ice ages.

Philip Iversen is a statistician and senior research advisor at Eli Lilly and Company. He is also an adjunct faculty of the Luther College mathematics department and a member of the American Statistical Association and the Mathematical Association of America.

Jim Iversen is a professor emeritus of aerospace engineering at Iowa State University. He is a Fellow of the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics and served as a member of the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology.

A national liberal arts college with an enrollment of 2,005, Luther offers an academic curriculum that leads to the Bachelor of Arts degree in more than 60 majors and pre-professional programs. For more information about Luther visit the college’s website: http://www.luther.edu.

Event Details

This is a collaborative offering between Green Iowa AmeriCorps and the Oneota Co-op Kitchen Classroom, and is focused on 3rd and 4th grade students (though students in other grades are also welcome to join). This after school program is composed of three class sessions, centered around teaching kids ways in which they can practice sustainable living, specifically around the holidays. We will discuss recycling and decorate our own recyclable wrapping paper, reuse old light bulbs to make holiday ornaments, and create ornaments from salt dough. This helps teach students to reuse rather than throw away, and to make their own decorations rather than buying new items made from plastics and other non-renewable materials. A walking schoolbus will be available from Carrie Lee to the Classroom for all three evenings. Parents, please indicate whether you child will be joining the walking schoolbus when you register.

This is a hands-on class lead by Gracie Engle and the Green Iowa AmeriCorps team, and is free of charge with a limit of 20 participants. Call 563-382-4666, or register online at http://oneotacoop.com/education-events/ to reserve your seat.
