Nobel laureate to address effects of global warming
Nobel laureate and professor Frank Sherwood Rowland will address the Friends of the Newport Coast annual meeting Tuesday.
The address, scheduled to begin at 7:45 p.m. at the Newport Coast Community Center, will touch upon the “Regional Effects of Global Warming.” There is no admission cost, and refreshments will be served.
Rowland, a professor of chemistry at UCI, is well-known for his discovery that CFCs, once common in products like hair spray and cleaning solvents, contributed to the depletion of the ozone layer in 1974. He was awarded a Nobel Prize in 1995.
