The laboratory staff Polina Ermolaeva and Irina Kuznetsova have participated in the international workshop «Perceptions, knowledge, and practices towards global climate change (GCC): key trends and challenges», which took place on November 6, 2017 in Prague, Czech Republic. Global changes in the environment have rethought the nature of environmental problems, which nowadays are not limited by the national or governmental borders. The workshop was dedicated to discussing relevant problems and climate changes in the interdisciplinary and international context based on the original empirical studies conducted by scientists from the Czech Republic and Russia.
