Ongoing - "Learning to Live in a Changing Climate" series, on the fourth Sunday of each month, 2:00 - 3:00 p.m. Sponsored by Middletown Friends Meeting's Outreach Committee. Invited speakers will share practical strategies for use by anyone concerned about the effects of the changing climate. Despite increasing coverage of climate change in the news, the level of useful every-day knowledge is very uneven. Globally and nationally, we learn of fires, floods, rising temperatures and destruction of our natural environment but the need for methods individuals can utilize are not readily available. For this reason, the Program will include beneficial topics on nutrition, gardening and soils, food preservation, water conservation, panel discussions, field trips, view solar-geothermal installations, and more.
