Do you have lingering questions about why climate scientists are convinced that human carbon emissions are driving the climate change we are seeing? Are you curious about what assumptions the future predictions in the news are based on? Do you wonder what local changes are predicted to come about in the next few decades? Are you looking for hopeful ideas of projects we can do together to strengthen our resilience as a community in the face of climate change and reduce our contribution to the problem at the same time? Are you concerned about the affordability of climate actions you’re considering? Cat will bring an engaging presentation tailored to Gold Hill; please feel free to send questions in advance (wildcat.russell@nullgmail.com) and come participate in the conversation about the science of the climate crisis and possible local technological and cultural responses.
