About this Event
Last August, Hurricane Dora, a Category 4 storm, brought high winds to the state of Hawaii. A termite damaged electrical pole snapped under the 60-knot wind and fire ignited over invasive dry grasses, engulfing the historic Lahaina town and incurring $6 billion in damages. Nearly a year later, displaced residents are still in temporary housing and hundreds of households have left the island.
Join us for an interactive workshop to understand the causes and effects of climate change per United Nations' IPCC climate science report and zero in on wildfire preparedness through the Maui fire case study. Come discuss
- How disrupted water cycle and biodiversity escalate climate crisis?
- What make community resilience and social media pivotal to survival?
All experience level welcome.
Curious about Climate Fresk? According to , "participants use illustrated cards that represent the causes and consequences of climate change and discuss potential solutions they could take part in.. And with those cards, people create large climate frescoes — hence the name Climate Fresk — to gain a better understanding of global warming."
