BIOGRAPHY:

David Goldberg is Paros Lamont Research Professor in Climate Science Research and Carbon Management. His interests focus on the integration of different technologies and cross-disciplinary approaches to develop achievable climate solutions. Goldberg received his undergraduate and MS degrees in earth and planetary sciences from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and his doctorate in geophysics and an MBA from Columbia University. He conducted post-doctoral studies at the Institute Français du Petrole in Paris and has been at Lamont-Doherty since 1985. He also currently serves as a Deputy Director of the Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory, Associate Director of the Marine Large Programs division, Director of the Lenfest Center for Sustainable Energy, and a lecturer in the Columbia University Sustainability Science program.
