Members of the  BFA Climate, Science, and Education Committee (CSEC) have arranged a panel discussion at the 2022 Conference on World Affairs. The panel titled: Climate Change: A Global Challenge with Local Opportunities will take place on Friday, April 8 from 10:30 to 11:40 a.m. in UMC 235.

The panel focus will be to discuss climate action on a local level and how more of our community can play a role in developing and implementing those solutions.  Or as R. Buckminster Fuller said, "Think globally, act locally."  Panelists will be discussing how members of the ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥ campus and the broader Boulder Valley community are taking action to mitigate the consequences of climate change as well as build resilience against climate related disasters.

Panelists include:
