[U01-01]Scope of 'Geoscience and society'★招待講演

*西山 忠男1(1.熊本大学自然科学研究科理学専攻地球環境科学講座)
This is a union session jointed with AGU.
The theme of this session is
”Geosciences and society: What is the role of geoscientists? Do we really need geoscientists? And if so how to suggest vocations among the young generations?"
We anticipate that this special session will be particularly stimulating, as it will provide useful comparisons of a single situation in two countries with different educational and societal contexts.
