November 20th: Climate Wednesdays at The Brooklyn Library-Parenting In the Age of Climate Change

November 20, 2019 @ 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm

Parenting In the Age of Climate Change

How do we talk to our children about climate change? How do we incorporate climate activism into the busy routine of parenting? How can we process our emotions in order to effectively respond to this threat? This event will bring together leaders in the climate movement who are tackling these sorts of questions for an important and engaging discussion. They will also provide concrete ideas and resources that parents can use to help build a greener future.

Speakers:

Nikki Crook, co-lead organizer of 350Brooklyn Families

Liat Olenick, elementary school science teacher, advocate for public schools and climate justice, and co-president of Indivisible Nation BK

Moderator: Tom Roderick, longtime educator, activist and writer, and former leader of Morningside Center for Teaching Social Responsibility
