All are welcome to this free event series – students, staff, faculty, and community members. Bring friends and colleagues.
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.
We will discuss the impacts of the accelerating climate crisis on human health and how this is intimately related to the health of organisms, ecosystems and the planet. Topics will include climate change and the emergence of new diseases, the spread of existing disease vectors, and the potential development of uninhabitable regions. Possible adaptation and mitigation approaches will also be considered.
