FAQ

Focus the Nation needs widespread support to have maximum impact. Focus the Nation organizing teams should seek endorsement of the following resolution by college Presidents, Faculty Senates, and Student governments. Everyone should welcome the opportunity to debate our obligation as educators and students to squarely face the challenge of our generation. View the list of endorsers.

"Global warming poses a serious threat to people and natural systems across the planet. Public and private policy decisions about global warming this decade will have impacts lasting for generations. To focus the nation's attention on this crucial issue, [institution], in conjunction with colleges, universities, and high schools across the country, will organize a symposium about "Global Warming Solutions for America" on or around January 31 2008. On that day, faculty are strongly encouraged to travel with their classes to attend scheduled programs about climate change or to discuss it with their own students. The symposium program committee will work with interested faculty to develop appropriate material for their classes, and to insure that diverse disciplines are represented in symposium panels and workshops."
