Presenter: Alon Tal, MSU's Visiting Serling Israeli Scholar, Ben Gurion University

Because of its modest size, Israel's environmental problems are largely transboundary. Without cooperation with its neighbors, progress in areas from stream restoration to species repatriation will be modest at best. Dr. Tal reviews over twenty years of "below the radar" environmental cooperation in the region and considers the present peace process and how it might be leveraged to ensure an ecological dividend for the Middle East. Co-sponsored by James Madison College, the Residential College in the Arts and Humanities, Peace and Justice Studies, Asian Studies Center, and the Science, Technology, Environment, and Public Policy Program.
