Special Report-This Hot Lister advises Bill Gates on climate change
Ken Caldeira, a renowned climate scientist, was piloting a yellow skiff across a lagoon off the northeast coast of Australia, with his postdoctoral employee, Manoela Romanó de Orte, sitting on the bow. Romanó de Orte injected a syringe of red dye into the water, recording the coordinates of the spot as Caldeira steered away from the spreading cloud. This experiment was part of their effort to measure the Great Barrier Reef's recovery from climate-change impacts, with Caldeira acting as Romanó de Orte's research assistant.0
