Dr. Paul Barnes Chairs United Nations Climate Panel

Dr. Paul Barnes, Professor and J.H. Mullahy Chair in Environmental Biology, continues to serve on the Environmental Effects Assessment Panel (EEAP).  The EEAP is a scientific assessment panel that provides the Parties of the Montreal Protocol with the most recent, relevant scientific information on the effects of stratospheric ozone depletion and climate change on various aspects of the environment, including human health, ecosystem services and surface solar UV radiation.  This is Dr. Barnes' 12th year on the EEAP and 6th year serving as a Co-Chair.  Dr. Barnes is the only member of the EEAP from a Jesuit University and his presence on this panel brings considerable international recognition to Loyola University.
