I am the science director and deputy director of NRDC's climate center. My main focus is solutions to global warming, in particular developing federal legislation to place enforceable limits on carbon dioxide and other heat-trapping pollutants. I also do a lot of work on the related areas of national energy policy and efforts to reduce America's dangerous dependence on oil. I have participated in scientific assessments of global warming through the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate change and have monitored international climate negotiations since their inception. I earned my bachelor's degree in physics and mathematics at Harvard and have a doctorate from the Energy and Resources Group at the University of California, Berkeley. I became an environmentalist the first time I went backpacking on the continental divide above Boulder, Colorado. I live with my wife Diane, my youngest son Robin, and our dog Diva. We have two older sons in college. I enjoy bicycling, hiking, and skiing when there is enough snow.
