Robin Bell is a Lamont polar research scientist: "It's really important to study the poles on our planet because that's where the ice lives, and that ice is in the process of melting. We see increasingly serious extreme events in everybody's backyard. The stakes are high but the opportunities are huge."
This Earth Month, we are celebrating our Earth Institute and Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory scientists and experts and the 50th anniversary of Earth Day on April 22, 2020.
