Global Warming and Climate Change
CLIMATE CHANGE:
IS IT REAL? IS IT A HOAX?
Learn the
facts. Weigh the evidence. You decide.
The Lackawaxen
River Conservancy and SEEDS (Sustainable
Energy Education Development Support) are hosting a presentation of The Climate
Reality Project on Tuesday, June 19, 2012, at 7 pm, at the PPL Environmental
Center, Rte. 6, Hawley.
The Climate
Reality Project is dedicated to bringing factual information about the climate
crisis into the mainstream and engaging the public in conversation about
effective solutions. Founded and chaired by Al Gore, Nobel Laureate and former
U.S. Vice President, The Climate Reality Project has more than 5 million members
and supporters worldwide. It is guided by one simple truth: The climate crisis
is real and we know how to solve it.
Presenter Hilde
Binford will address climate change as an urgent crisis that must be addressed
not simply by altering our personal lifestyle, but more effectively by
individuals and communities coming together to develop real, systemic, and
innovative solutions.
Hilde Binford
was a member of one of the first groups to train with Al Gore in January of
2007, and she has been making presentations and leading workshops about climate
change ever since. At Moravian College, she
co-teaches a multi-disciplinary course entitled Climate Crises: Past, Present
and Future. For the past three years, she has led the college delegation to the
United Nations meetings on climate change held in Copenhagen, TianJin, Cancun,
and Bonn.
The program is
free of charge and all are welcome to attend.

For the record- I never believed in the Global Warming or Global Cooling Concept - I felt that the natural buffering system would become overwhelmed and we would see more significant swings in regional climate, i.e., Climate Change. Now have we caused or caused to increase faster than nature - I would say - Yes - we are the ones that cut down the forest, put more carbon and other gases in the air - if we were not here on this planet - the Climate and Environment would be significantly different.
