Climate Change Book #1: Fall 2004: This semester's climate change book is Red Sky at Morning, a new work by Gus Speth, the Dean of Yale's School of Forestry and the Environment. Red Sky at Morning will provide law students as well as students from other disciplines with a solid grounding in the law, policy, science, and economics of climate change and other pressing international environmental problems. In Red Sky at Morning, Dean Speth also offers 8 "Transitions to Sustainability". Students are encouraged to adopt climate change research projects involving these Transistions for journal notes, research papers, etc.

"Young people will almost certainly be centrally involved in any movement for real change. They always have been. New dreams are born most easily when the world is seen with fresh eyes and confronted with impertinent questions. The Internet is empowering young people in an unprecedented way - not just by access to information but by access to each other, and to a wider world." - Gus Speth
