Vision of Climate Crisis
As Elders, we know that it is unlikely that we will see the worst of the heat waves and storms that are being baked into the climate today. That is the unfortunate legacy for the youth.We may see the end of the coral reefs, the tipping point pushing the Amazon from forest to scrubland, a world in which only billionaires have a say in the halls of government, continents on fire, and the catastrophic die-off of the oceans’ phytoplankton. It is these disastrous possibilities, more probable by the day, that compel us to speak out as clearly and forcefully as we can.
This workshop will focus on the content of a position paper on the climate crisis written by the Green Party Elders. Participants will engage in discussion around the content. Key points from the discussion will be generated into a list of actionable recommendations for organizing local actions to educate communities on the state of our climate and on the implementation of practices to confront the climate crisis.
