A message from Queensland Chief Scientist, Professor Peter Andrews
Dear Colleague
Last year, JCU Vice-Chancellor Professor Sandra Harding and I hosted a small, international symposium on the subject of Life in the Torrid Zone.
The think tank of 40 delegates considered opportunities and threats facing the tropical world, proposing a number of ways in which they might be addressed to achieve win-win outcomes for tropical Australia and our neighbours in the tropical world.
A report that draws together key points from the think tank’s deliberations is now available on JCU’s website.
I hope you will find the report interesting. Sandra and I look forward to working with you on the issues it identifies.
Best wishes
Professor Peter Andrews
Queensland Chief Scientist
