Come join us for Let’s Talk Climate, a series of informal conversations about climate change, served up with some tasty foods.
Facilitators will start each session by sharing some ideas and information about the day’s topic to set the stage, and then engage the group in an open discussion. We’ll have some discussion questions in mind to help guide the conversations, but we’ll let the conversations go where you and other participants want to take them.
Fears and visions over climate change are not a new idea. How are the ways in which we relate to nature and climate linked to how people thought about--and worried about--climate in the past, especially in the 1700 and 1800s, when industrialization and other ideas of nature that continue to impact Western society were honed? How did Western views of climate become a global phenomenon, and how have both understanding and anxiety about climate and environment lead to current crisis?
