Global Warming Workshop July 28-29 in KC
Join us in Kansas City for an exciting workshop focusing on the regional impacts of global warming. The workshop will begin on Saturday, July 28, and continue through the morning of Sunday the 29th. The event, sponsored by the Southern Plains Regional Conservation Committee (SPRCC) with assistance from the Northern Plains Regional Conservation Committee (NPRCC), will be held at the Heartland Presbyterian Conference Center in a retreat setting convenient to the Kansas City airport. A range of topics will be covered, primarily focusing on the central United States: heat, drought, extreme storms and flooding, impacts on agriculture, rivers, lakes, coastal settings, urban quality of life and human health.
The workshop is open to all Sierra Club members and, as space permits, to others interested in this topic. Considerable time will be devoted to discussing both regional and national actions that we can take to curb global warming. Participants will learn how to connect with the Sierra Club’s regional and national Global Warming Campaign resources. For registration materials please contact Nicole Holt at the Sierra Club’s Texas/Arkansas Field Office, nicole.holt@sierraclub.org or (512) 472-9094.
