In the spring of 2007 MSRI, organized a large public event, "Climate Change: From Global Models to Local Action," to examine some political and economic aspects of climate: what we know, what we guess, how and how much our society can and should respond to what we are learning. The key feature of this event was a public panel discussion. The public panel discussion was followed on the next two days by a scientific symposium, in which mathematicians from many different fields mixed with economists, climate modelers and others who have already been working on the many questions involved. This booklet is a record of some of the discussions and ideas in those meetings.
