Pulse Cafe presents: YOUR FOOD, YOUR CLIMATE
March 2, 2020 @ 6:00 pm - 8:30 pm
The food system is a key influence on our climate and the well-being of humans, non-humans, and ecosystems. Lead by climate scientist Shaina Rogstad and Brittany Gutermuth of Mass Aubudon, the presentation and discussion will be grounded in the best available science on land use and climate change, including agricultural contributions.
Shaina will summarize much of the key information contained in the IPCC, Intergovermental Panel on Climate Change, report released this August and touch on ways we can all collectively work to improve and help in the climate change challenge.
Refreshments included:
Shaina Rogstad is a PhD Candidate in Geo sciences with a masters degree in Applied Mathematics. She works as a climate scientist at the Climate Systems Research Center at UMass Amherst. Her research uses global climate models to study how changes in the Antarctic ice sheet under future conditions with increasing greenhouse gas emissions. You can find her online @ScienceShaina on Twitter and Instagram.
Brittany Gutermuth is Climate Education Coordinator with Mass Audubon’s Connecticut River Valley Sanctuaries.
