A rational, nothing-but-the-facts explanation of the impact that climate change is having on our health, economy, and global security. Presented by Kathleen Biggins of C-Change Conversations.
From heavier rains and flooding to hotter summers and shifting seasons, the impacts of a changing climate are already shaping life in Ohio. In Akron, these changes are visible in our backyards and cherished natural spaces, affecting the careful balance of life sustained by the local ecosystem.
Join Kathleen Biggins, founder of C-Change Conversations, for a thoughtful, nonpartisan discussion about what is happening to our changing climate and how we can be better stewards. Designed for those who care deeply about leaving a better world for their children and grandchildren, this engaging presentation connects climate science to local realities without alarmism or political framing.
Presented in partnership with the Summit Metro Parks, C-Change Conversations, and Akron Garden Club.
