Climate Change impacts our health and the future of our planet. Despite climate change denial at the federal level, action can still occur at the local level. We are fortunate to have three speakers join us for an informative discussion on what we can we do locally to help find climate solutions, even as the Trump Administration continues to roll back environmental regulations. We hope you will join us for this timely and important discussion.
