Community Resilience for the Climate Emergency

July 19, 2023 @ 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm

The Peace & Social Justice Forum/Waldo County , in coordination with  the All of Belfast Climate Dialogues project of the Belfast Free Library, and the Possibility Alliance,  will host Dr. Peter Kalmus, an award winning author and climate scientist from NASA’s Jet Propulsion Lab in California. He has said that “Global Warming is happening with a rapidity that leaves me speechless” and is dismayed that our government is not placing this existential threat  at the center of the challenges that we are facing. Moving beyond fossil fuels and how we as individuals can work toward this goal, while living fulfilled lives  is the question he and his family have been grappling with.

Dr. Kalmus will be sharing his personal journey in this essential work, as well as discussing how we can respond as individuals both locally, and in collective ways to move us  toward a fossil free future. His award winning book is titled “Being the Change : Live Well and Spark a Climate Revolution.”
