Story Idea #3: 6th WRRC Conference



On April 9th the UMass Water Resources Research Center will host its sixth annual conference titled Water Dependencies In New England: Systems, Stresses, And Responses. Part of the conference will be devoted to climate change adaptations and impacts as well as research being done as a result of global climate change. I’d like to see of what’s presented what implications or connections there are to domestic crisis in California and what can be learned from measures water officials are taking there or on a more local level to the proposed Russell Biomass plant on the Westfield River.
Possible Interviews:
Sarina Ergas (Associate Professor, Civil and Environmental Engineering)
Dr. James F. Manwell (Professor and Director of the Renewable Energy Research Laboratory)
Dr. Chad Nelson (Director of the National Environmental Technology Center in the UMass Environmental Instititute).
