There is a need to identify robust str ategies for responding to the challenges brought by climate change through adaptation\, reorganization\, and evolution. Our response to climate chan ge must include solutions that allow our socio-ecological systems to not o nly survive\, but thrive.\n\n\n The 2018 5th Annual Trottier Symposium on S ustainable Engineering\, Energy\, and Design will focus on resilience and human responses to climate change\, while considering the following questi ons:\n • What is resilience and why is it so important to ensure sustainabi lity in the context of climate change?\n • How can we be more resilient to disruptions such as extreme weather events\, floods\, drought\, sea level rise\, and heat waves?\n • How can infrastructure be protected and self-ren ewed following extreme weather events or other stresses exacerbated by cli mate change?\n\nSpeakers\n The symposium is a free\, public event\, featuri ng prominent speakers on each day of the 2 day event.\n  \n\nApril 4th - Da y 1 - 6pm to 8pm\n Guy Nordenson\, Professor of Structural Engineering and Architecture\, Princeton University School of Architecture\n\nPippa Brashe ar\, Director of Planning and Resilience\, SCAPE\n\nApril 5th - Day 2 - 6p m to 8pm\n Karen Seto\, Professor of Geography and Urbanization Science\, Y ale University School of Forestry and Environmental Studies\n\nPhilippe Go urbesville\, Professor Hydroinformatics and Water Engineering\, University of Nice Sophia Antipolis\n\n \n\nMore Information:  http://www.trottiersy mposium.org\n\nRegistration: www.trottiersymposium.eventbrite.ca\n\n \n DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20180404 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20180405 LOCATION:CA\, QC\, Montreal\, H3A 3R8\, Centre Mont-Royal\, 2200 rue Mansfi eld SUMMARY:The 5th Annual Trottier Symposium on Sustainable Engineering\, Ener gy and Design URL:/tised/channels/event/5th-annual-trottier-symposiu m-sustainable-engineering-energy-and-design-284286 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
