ABOUT THE CLIMATE ACTION SERIES
We are pleased to offer our Museum community a new program aimed at discussing, acting on, and educating people about climate change. From April 2022 through August 2022, the Climate Action Series will take place once a month on Saturday. Highlighting ways in which climate change is affecting the world around us, this program will cover topics such as erosion and water management, creating local resilience for bird species, and reducing carbon emissions. We will focus on sharing actionable steps audiences can take to become better advocates for change.
