scientific-political Symposium in Brussels about climate research in
the Arctic. Over 150 experts are expected to attend the event

Under the title "The Arctic Climate system, its present status, future

award-winning television documentary "Tara - Journey to the Heart of
the Climate Machine" coproduced with the European Commission
Directorate General for Research. A special screening will take place

Croix 1050 Brussels. Involved arctic scientists as well as film
director and producers will be present.
The scientists participating at the symposium will publish a joint
declaration concerning the future of climate research at a press
conference on 12th November 12:30. The declaration will be available
