DESCRIPTION:Book launch party for Sea Change: An Atlas of Islands in a Rising Ocean 
 with author and environmental journalist Christina Gerhardt whose book was 
 named one of the Best Science Books of 2023 by the New Scientist. This 
 immersive portal to islands around the world highlights the impacts of sea 
 level rise and shimmers with hopeful solutions to combat 
 it.\n\nInterlocutor for the evening will be Kristina Hill, Program Director 
 of the Institute for Urban and Regional Development (IURD) and Associate 
 Professor of Landscape Architecture & Environmental Planning and Urban 
 Design at UC Berkeley.\n\nAtlases are being redrawn as islands are 
 disappearing. What does an island see when the sea rises? Sea Change weaves 
 together essays, maps, art, and poetry to show us—and make us 
 see—island nations in a warming world.\n\n“A stunning atlas of the 
 present and future." - Rebecca Solnit, author of numerous books including 
 Infinite Cities: A Trilogy of Atlases - San Francisco, New Orleans, New 
 York\n\nChristina Gerhardt is Associate Professor at the University of 
 Hawai'i at Mānoa, permanent Senior Fellow at the University of California, 
 Berkeley, and former Barron Professor of Environment and the Humanities at 
 Princeton University. She is also an environmental journalist, and her 
 writing has been published in Grist.org, The Nation, The Progressive, and 
 the Washington Monthly, among other venues.\n\nEvent at 7pm - doors at
