Inconvenient Truths and Unforeseen Opportunities: Finding Solutions to Global Warming in Oregon July 17, 2007

Cylvia Hayes, executive director of 3EStrategies, is one of 1,000 people worldwide who was chosen by former Vice President Al Gore to be trained to deliver the slideshow that led to the film An Inconvenient Truth. Global warming / climate change is already having serious environmental and economic impacts including increasingly severe hurricanes, tornadoes and floods, melting glaciers, diminished snowpacks, escalating insurance costs, costly wildfires, upheaval in fisheries and food production and shifting human disease patterns. Hayes will present the science behind and current day impacts of global climate change. She will focus on the unique challenges, and opportunities, this presents for Oregon. Finally, Hayes will offer a pragmatic roadmap for how we can effectively address this crucial issue.
