Animals of the North: What Will Global Climate Change Mean for Them? Hosted by the Upper Valley Land Trust

Location: 
Thetford Academy, 304 Academy Road, Thetford, VT 05074

This program is designed to educate audiences about ways in which northern wildlife species are already being affected by climate change, with more serious challenges ahead.  Canada lynx, moose, American marten, caribou, polar bears, arctic fox and arctic marine and waterfowl ecology are some of the species and subjects covered in this stunningly beautiful show.  We promise not to overwhelm our audience with bad news. Instead, our program will devote equal time sharing remarkable images of animals and their northern habitats—all in the spirit of Jane Goodall’s “reason for hope.” Our intent is to inspire our attendees, young and old alike, to join us in the vital crusade to change our fossil fuel-burning ways, conserve natural resources and share a healthy planet with all that lives.

Families are welcome, and the program is free and open to the public.  For more information, contact Jason Berard at Jason.Berard@uvlt.org

The slide presentation begins at 7:00 p.m. with a walk before the slide show.  Please contact Jason Berard for more details about the walk.
