Geologists and climatologists, who specialize in the physical earth sciences, came together with biologists, paleontologists and anthropologists, who mainly concern themselves with life on Earth, for a symposium, to discuss the question, "Did Climate Change Shape Human Evolution?"
"This is a meeting I've been trying to have for, I'd say, at least the last 10
