Climate Change: Its impacts, and our growing efforts to contain it. Hurricanes Harvey, Irma and Maria are our latest reminders that climate change is real, and that its implications are great.  Rising sea levels combined with excess moisture in the atmosphere and slowing air currents conspired to make these recent hurricanes a major catastrophe.  Please join Phil Jakobsberg for a presentation on the effects of climate change, and how our energy sources are changing in response to it.  Phil recently attended a training for the Leadership Corps of the Climate Reality Project.  He will share what he learned about the effects of climate change – the impacts of which are larger and wider in scope than many of us know – and the solutions that are moving us away from carbon emitting energy – we are closer to a renewable energy tipping point than many of us might have guessed.

You are invited to bring a refreshment to share.
