The 2005 Saul O Sidore Lecture Series will come to a close Wednesday, May 4, with a look at “Science and the Politics of Climate Change” by Robert Watson, senior spokesperson on global warming and climate change at the World Bank and chair of the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. The series, Research and the Public Interest, explores the role of research in a democracy and what part the public should play in determining the nation’s research agenda.

Watson’s lecture is free and open to the public, and will begin at 4 p.m. in the Squamscott Room of Holloway Commons.

The purpose of the series is to offer the university community and the state of New Hampshire programs that raise critical and sometimes controversial issues facing our society. The series is sponsored by the UNH Center for the Humanities. For more information, visit http://www.unh.edu/osr/sidore.
