“When I was in Gombe I learned, from my hours in the rainforest, how every species has a role to play, how everything is interconnected. Each time a species goes extinct it is as though a hole is torn in that wonderful tapestry of life. And as more holes appear, the ecosystem is weakened. In more and more places, the tapestry is so tattered that it is close to ecosystem collapse.” — Jane Goodall, The Book of Hope
While the quote may sound dire, this is a hope-filled, actionable program.
This program is our Climate Series programming for February. You may attend in person, or via Facebook & YouTube. Questions from online will be given to speakers to address. It’s not too late to make a difference, especially in Appalachia!
