The city of Woodbury is launching a new speaker series in partnership with the South Washington Watershed District this week, connecting community members to climate scientists.
Beginning Thursday at Eagle Valley Golf Course in Woodbury, climate scientists will present discussions “through the lens of facts and numbers, people and community, and how to create practical change,” according to the city’s Facebook post. The event is free and open to the public.
“Hear from top professionals in the field of climate sciences about local issues impacting water quality and the environment,” the post stated.
The two presenters featured on Thursday include Jen Kader, administrator of the Clean Water Council at the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency, and Kenneth Blumenfeld, senior climatologist at the Minnesota State Climate Office.
Community members are encouraged to come curious and bring questions surrounding climate-related topics as a “snack and chat” mingling opportunity will take place before the presentations begin. A public Q&A and networking opportunities will follow the presentation.
The community discussion will be held 4:30-6:30 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 16, at Eagle Valley Golf Course, 2600 Double Eagle Lane in Woodbury.
Free tickets can be reserved at eventbrite.com using the search term “Woodbury Green Talks.”
