On this day, December 10, 1978 a five day Workshop co-hosted by the CSU and SCOPE
“Workshop on Climate/Society Interface” began in Toronto..
This was (presumably?!) a kind of sequel/follow up to the February 1978 IIASA workshop “Carbon Dioxide, Climate and Society” which had been cosponsored by WMO, UNEP, and SCOPE, February 21 – 24, 1978.
Papers included
Margolis, H. (December 1978) Estimating social impacts of climate change–What might be done versus what is likely to be done.
[The amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere was 335ppm. At time of writing it was 419ishppm- but for what it is now,well, see here for the latest.]
