Do you hear conflicting claims about climate change? Are the predictions confusing and solutions uncertain? Why not join a small group webinar to
learn and discuss the reality and possible solutions?
“Can We Stop Climate Change?” classes will meet Wednesday evenings. The group will be limited to 15 participants to allow for active participation.
We are beginning to see hopeful signs at all levels of government, not to mention contributions by a wide range of organizations, but we need to
move quickly and boldly. Many scientists say we have less than 8 years to make significant changes. It’s important that citizens be well informed and
willing to talk about and act on climate issues.
- The first Zoom session addresses the basic science and the effects of climate change. You may know a lot of this but new information will be introduced.
- The second meeting delves into climate modeling and specifically the En-ROADS Climate Solutions Simulator which is used in policymaking. You don’t have to be a scientist to grasp these concepts and appreciate their relevance.
- The third session covers renewable energy sources, primarily wind and solar, and the incredible reduction in costs over the past ten years.
The last session takes a look at the audience we are trying to reach, as well as various opportunities for you to get active. - You can learn more about the webinar here.
