It&#8217;s also the challenge meeting your audience where they are.  \u201cClimate Change and You\u201d is a presentation that does just that.  It is an engaging and compelling program that uses visual data, charts and photographs to provide an accessible overview of climate science and a clear-eyed assessment of the risks ahead. <b class=\"c\">It focuses on the interplay of science, economics and policy (including the benefits of moving to a low-carbon economy), rather than depicting climate change as an environmental or political issue.<\/b>  <\/p>\n<p>C-Change Conversations, a New Jersey-based nonprofit organization, developed the 50-minute presentation in consultation with independent climate scientists and public policy specialists and has presented it to more than 7,500 people nationwide.<\/p>\n<p>Join Green Needham and the Friends of the Needham Public Library at <b>2:00 pm<\/b> on <b>Sunday February 7th<\/b> for a Webinar presentation of &#8220;Climate Change and You&#8221; by Dallas Hetherington from C-Change conversations, with questions and answers following the program.<\/p>\n<p>Better yet, bring along a friend you&#8217;ve wanted to introduce climate change to, but didn&#8217;t know how!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/tiny.cc\/needham-cchange\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Register for free here <\/a> at <a href=\"https:\/\/tiny.cc\/needham-cchange\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/tiny.cc\/needham-cchange\/ <\/a>.
