About Us
The Ronald and Maxine Linde Center for Global Environmental Science was founded in 2008 to address the complex issue of global climate change from a wide range of disciplines. The Center unites faculty from chemistry, engineering, geology, environmental science, and other fields. Many of the faculty members associated with the center teach and research in Caltech's Environmental Science and Engineering Department—a multidivisional program of graduate and undergraduate study.

The Linde Center will be housed in the Linde+Robinson Laboratory following completion of an 18-month renovation of this historic building. The Robinson Laboratory was completed around 1935 to house the development of the Palomar telescope. In the renovation, the building will be restored to its original luster and updated to house modern laboratories for geochemistry, microbiology, and atmospheric and oceanic science.
