The League of Women Voters of Bellingham / Whatcom County invites the public to attend an education program by David Roberts on Saturday, March 23, 2019, at the Bellingham Unitarian Fellowship. Mr. Roberts, Principal at Kulshan Services, will give a presentation, including some surprising slides, showing the impact of climate change for the Bellingham community and will offer some steps to mitigate these challenges. Following the presentation by Mr. Roberts, representatives from the Bellingham Climate Action Plan Task Force and Whatcom County Climate Impact Advisory Committee will give updates on their findings and action plans. Bring your questions for these city and county citizen advisory groups and learn more about their plans for mitigating climate change impacts in Bellingham and Whatcom County, as well as steps we can all take individually.
