How to Instigate Action on Climate Change
Camden Talks Climate
Thursday, March 6th 6-7:45 pm
Camden Public Library
Camden Talks Climate “How to Instigate Action on Climate Change,” with Kerry Emanuel, MIT Professor Emeritus of Atmospheric Science at MIT. Property insurance rates are skyrocketing in Camden and nationwide due in large part to catastrophes like wildfires in Los Angeles and hurricanes in Florida that are caused or worsened by climate change. Yet the greenhouse gas emissions that cause climate change continue to rise, and little is being done to adapt infrastructure to handle the change.
