REVEALING RELATIONSHIPS: CLIMATE CHANGE AND DISASTER PREPAREDNESS
SEPTEMBER 26, 2020
Wildfires are more common and more severe in Alaska, Montana and the Pacific Northwest then they used to be. One reason is Climate Change. Loss of sea ice, melting permafrost, and sea level changes are already requiring Indigenous Alaskan communities to relocate. The cause is Climate Change. February 2020 flooding in Umatilla, OR and Walla Walla, WA counties was the most severe on record, and the frequency is increasing. Why?
Join a stellar panel of experts and advocates to discuss the intersections of Climate Change and Disaster Preparedness as it is experienced today, right here in our part of the world
