Understanding extremes of the changing climate to better protect our community
Please join us for a presentation that explores the challenges of climate change and what we can do to mitigate them. This presentation is hosted by the Connecticut Valley Garden Club.
This presentation will feature Kathleen Biggins, who created C-Change Conversations to help people across the political spectrum understand why they should care about climate change. Using nonpartisan, science-based presentations, she educates audiences throughout the country about how climate change will impact them personally, why there is urgency to address it, how to forge consensus for action, and how to find hope for our future.
This presentation is free and open to the public. Check-in begins at 5:00 pm. The presentation begins at 6:00 pm followed by Q & A. Light refreshments will be served.

About the Speaker: Kathleen Biggins is the president and founder of C-Change Conversations, a nonprofit organization dedicated to promoting productive, non-partisan discussions about the science and effects of climate change. The organization–comprised of volunteers who span the political spectrum–sponsors the C-Change Conversations Lecture Series, which invites business and community leaders in the Princeton, NJ area to learn about climate change from a wide range of nationally-recognized scientists and business and military leaders. Kathleen also developed the C-Change Primer with input from Climate Central and the Yale Program on Climate Change Communication. Team members have presented the Primer to more than 19,000 people in 32 states, and it is widely hailed as an intelligent, dispassionate introduction to and illumination of climate change. The Primer has been endorsed by business, political and social leaders and enthusiastically received by many conservative audiences across the country.
