We are all united by living in the climate of Earth, so how can we help
make a positive impact? In this conversation for change we will explore
climate change and personal actions that can have a positive impact. We
will hear from Dr. Dione Lee Rossiter, the Executive Director of Science
at Cal, UC Berkeley about the inner workings of climate change. Dr.
Costanza Rampini, Assistant Professor in Environmental Studies at San
Jose State University, will share about the ways that humans impact the
environment and what we can do to collectively (re)create our everyday
choices towards sustaining this beautiful planet. We will hear from our
guest speakers and engage in community discussions to brainstorm ideas
and talk about steps we can all take. Together let’s learn, engage, and
discuss climate change solutions.
