Climate Change: the Science, Projections, Impacts and Solutions

Date/time: Tuesday, August 21, 6:30 pm - 7:45 pm
Location Sierra Club Legislative Office (401 C Street NE)
RSVP: http://www.dc.sierrac...

Description: Climate change is one of the great challenges of
our generation, destined to, in the words of British PM Tony
Blair, "radically alter human existence." Yet it is clear we
have the tools to mitigate its worst affects by acting soon and
with urgency. This one-hour presentation (RSVP here) provides
the very latest information from the IPCC, the UN-based body
charged with climate change research. It will include basic
discussions of 1) the science, 2) global temperature
projections through 2100, 3) expected impacts on weather
patterns, human health, and species extinction, and 4) proposed
solutions to climate change. This discussion will leave the
audience both much better informed, and inspired to act, on
this critical issue.
