Hotter, Wetter, Weirder: Climate Change in Philadelphia In-Person / Online
In recent years, our region has been hit by an epic drought, heat waves, wildfire smoke, and flooding from 1,000-year storms. Yes, climate change is already happening in the Philly region as our climate gets hotter, wetter, and decidedly weirder. But what's the evidence for climate change locally? What are the trends in temperature and rainfall? And what does the data say? You’ll not only be surprised, but motivated to find solutions. In this must-see lecture, writer-naturalist Mike Weilbacher carefully walks you through the science while answering your many questions about the defining issue of our time.
The author of Wild Philly: Explore the Amazing Nature in and Around Philadelphia, Mike travels the region offering lectures and walks on topics climate change, microplastics, the monarch butterfly's migration, and more.
