“Humanity must begin bending the curves…” It was a grey afternoon on November 4th, 2010. 200 or so students, scholars and citizens sat in a symposium hosted by the Institute of Atomic and Molecular Sciences at the National Taiwan University (NTU) (中央研究院原子分子研究所). They were listening intently to a presentation given by Professor Johan Rockstrom – head of the Stockholm Environment Institute (SEI) and the Stockholm Resilience Center; 2009 Swedish person of the year; and one of the world’s top scientists on resilience and sustainability issues.
The experts sharing the floor with him in this symposium were no less distinguished: Professor Shaw-Chen Liu from Academia Sinica’s Research Center for Environmental Changes (中央研究院環境變遷研究中心主任劉紹臣教授);Professor Chen-Tung Arthur Chen of the Institute of Marine Geology and Chemistry at the National Sun Yat-sen University (中山大學亞太海洋中心陳鎮東教授), Professor Jiunn-Rong Yeh of the National Taiwan University College of Law (台灣大學法律系葉俊榮教授),and the Moderator, former Academia Sinica President and a Nobel Laureate in Chemistry, Professor Yuan-Tseh Lee (引言人, 前中研院院長李遠哲).
