About this Event

Are you feeling the heat? Are you concerned about climate change? Dr. Stefan Sommer from the Northern Arizona Climate Change Alliance and retired NAU Professor will present, answer questions, and moderate a discussion on the challenges of climate change and solutions that could be implemented.

Some key issues will be addressed: Why are global temperatures rising faster now? Is this related to rising CO2 emissions? What about the jump in sea surface temperatures that started in 2023? What are the comparative costs of paying for climate change impacts vs paying to shift to clean, renewable energy?
