Reversing Global Climate Change

Thursday, April 24th 7:30pm: Carolyn Treadway presents: Awakening from our Trance: Reversing Global Climate Change”

This event takes place at the CHANNING-MURRAY FOUNDATION

The world's leading climate scientists agree that our global climate is changing, and that humans are greatly accelerating the natural rate of these changes. To prevent changes which would irreversibly wreak havoc upon our environment, our country needs to decrease its greenhouse gas emissions at least 80% by 2050. Can we do this? Yes we can! But how? What can individuals, groups, institutions, businesses, and governments do? This presentation will address such questions. Al Gore's climate slides will be used to show indications of "global warming" worldwide. Predictions for climate changes in Illinois will be emphasized, as well as ways the Heartland could contribute to reversing the climate crisis. Following the slideshow, group discussion about issues and solutions will be facilitated. Carolyn Treadway was trained by Al Gore and his team of top climate scientists and environmental educators to be one of his "1000 Messengers" to take the climate crisis message across the land at the grassroots level.
