Wide Range of Topics Covered During GEO-CVD

摘要

On Sept. 30, AAPG Executive Director David Curtiss and 10 AAPG members participated in a day of visits to Capitol Hill to discuss the importance of strong federal investments for geoscience research and education. "Talking to policymakers is public outreach, and our goal with GEO-CVD is to help Congress better understand the important role the geosciences play in everyday life," said Curtiss, who was joined for the event by executive directors from the American Geosciences Institute, the Geological Society of America and SEPM/ Society for Sedimentary Geology. Geosciences Congressional Visits Day (GEO-CVD) is organized by AAPG in conjunction with other geoscience organizations, including the American Geosciences Institute, the American Geophysical Union, the Geological Society of America, the National Groundwater Association, the Seismological Society of America, the American Meteorological Society of America, SEPM/Society for Sedimentary Geology and the Soil Science Society of America.
