This series provides a platform for both in-person and virtual discussions, workshops, and presentations.
Join us each month as we bring together experts, thought leaders, and community members to explore the latest climate science, the work being done at Woodwell Climate Research Center, and the steps we can all take toward a sustainable future.
Each event is free and open to the public. Doors open at 5:00pm, events start at 6:00pm in the Harbourton Auditorium.
Select lectures will be available both in-person and virtually, with recordings available on the Woodwell Climate website at a later date.
