Join us on February 8th, 2020 as we begin to talk about climate change.

A speaker for the Sierra Club will be giving a lecture on the following:

Problems:
*Nutrient Pollution and Coastal Dead Zones
*Overfishing, Bycatch and Aquaculture
*Greenhouse Gas Emissions
*Soil Loss
*Feeding a Growing Human Population

What is the solution to solve these problems? Learn what you can do to help our planet and protect our natural resources.

In January, you will hear our podcast interview by Dr. Riz and myself on this topic.

“Humans have made unprecedented changes to ecosystems in recent decades to meet growing demands for food, fresh water, fiber, and energy • These changes have helped to improve the lives of billions, but at the same time they weakened nature’s ability to deliver other key services such as purification of air and water, protection from disasters, and the provision of medicines · Among the outstanding problems identified by this assessment are the dire state of many of the world’s fish stocks; the intense vulnerability of the 2 billion people living in dry regions to the loss of ecosystem services, including water supply; and the growing threat to ecosystems from climate change and nutrient pollution · Human activities have taken the planet to the edge of a massive wave of species extinctions, further threatening our own well-being · The pressures on ecosystems will increase globally in coming decades unless human attitudes and actions change.”- UNEP
