Adult CE

Coming off the hottest year on record, and one of the warmest winters on record, climate change has become an ever-present factor in our lives. But how much progress are we making at the state and national levels? And how much can our individual actions impact a clearly global problem? Doug O'Malley, Director with Environment New Jersey and FPC member, will do a run-down on progress made over the last year on both the state and federal level. Doug will break down impacts of climate change on everything from our drinking water, our insurance rates and the pace of single-use plastics in our lives. He will also do an Earth Day tune-up on green plans made in past years and provide some key tips for all of us to incorporate into our daily lives, from young parents to grandparents. Come join Doug O'Malley in the MacColl Room at 9:45 AM on Sunday, April 21, as part of this year's Earth Day teach-in.
