A current assessment of the
nuclear winter phenomenon
and its implications was
presented at a recent symposium
sponsored by the National Academy
of Sciences and the National
Academy of Engineering. About
300 attendees gathered at the National Academy of Sciences in
Washington, D.C., to hear speakers
in the subject chosen to give expert, as well as diverse, views and to hear the latest results obtained by computer modeling.
