255 The Role of Science in Environmental Pollution and Climate Change: A Dialogue Between the U.S. and Sino Soil Scientists

Oral Session
Z06 The Association of Chinese Soil and Plant Scientists in North America/Environmental and Public Health Network for Chinese Students and Scholars
In general, the purpose for us to organize this section is to 1) share current knowledge/experiences in controlling environmental pollution in both the U.S. and China; 2) discuss possible solutions on water quality and soil sequestration for mitigating GHGs; 3) help soil scientists in both China and the U.S. to find their common interests and stimulate possible collaborations.
