The Austin Forum's July discussion event will bring us back to the discussion of a science fiction book with very real-world implications: Neal Stephenson's new climate thriller, "Termination Shock." Join us at Austin Forum advisory board member, and elite sci-fi geek, Julie Tomlin returns to moderate a thoughtful discussion of the implications of a book about how climate action could pit individuals versus governments, as well as governments versus each other. (This discussion will not weigh in on real-world political matters, only on climate chance science, and science-fiction, and the implications for technology companies and policies.)
