DISTINGUISHED LECTURE SERIES: 
2020 Purdue Engineering Distinguished Lecture Series presenter Tami C. Bond is the Walter Scott, Jr. Presidential Chair in Energy, Environment and Health at Colorado State University.

In this lecture, Tami C. Bond discusses “From Hearth to Heavens and Home Again”. This talk follows the evolution of her thinking over the last 25 years about “black carbon” particles that are an essential link between the fire that defines humanity and the response of the Earth system to industrial activity. Black carbon has strong and rapid effects on the Earth’s radiative budget, and this fact has led to high-level policy recommendations to reduce emissions. This shift in focus from purely physical climate effects might turn aspirations to addressing the causes of vulnerability among the populations we wish to benefit. Emissions came from fire (hearth), but to benefit the Earth system (heavens), we’ll have go home.
