Message from the Director
Welcome to the University of Illinois Environmental Change Institute's website. We invite you to join us in developing and implementing sustainable solutions to the challenges of environmental change - through education, research, and public awareness. Thanks to start-up resources from the Alvin H. Baum Family Fund and three founding colleges - Agricultural, Consumer and Environmental Sciences, Law, and Business - we have begun nucleating the incredible power of the University toward these ends. I encourage all of us to think - understand our situation - and change - develop and apply practical solutions. Let's get on with it!
