New England, Home to One of the World's Fastest-Changing Climates
Advertisement
New England is now warming faster than most places on the planet outside the polar and Arctic zones.
Dr. Stephen Young, Professor of Geography and Sustainability at Salem State University, will present his latest peer-reviewed research on rapidly accelerating temperatures and disappearing winter snow cover across New England. Drawing on years of study, he will discuss what these changes mean for our local ecosystems, infrastructure and communities, and what we can expect in the years ahead.
Doors open at 6:30 pm for socializing. The lecture runs 7:00-8:00 pm, including time for questions and discussion.
Dr. Young is a former chair of the Department of Geography and Sustainability at Salem State. He uses satellite imaging to study climate change and deforestation.
The talk will be recorded and posted at storm-surge.org after the event.
Co-sponsored by the Newburyport Resiliency Committee. Thank you to Institution for Savings for its financial support of the Speaker Series.
