Presentation on “Status of Climate Crisis and What To Do About It

Presentation in Room 13 from 12:30 – 1:00 p.m. on Sunday, September 1st: “State of the Climate Crisis and What You Can Do About” It by Bob Hendricks.

Bob Hendricks is the top climate volunteer leader for the two largest grassroots climate organizations in Texas, chair of the state Sierra Club ExCom and state coordinator for Citizens Climate Lobby. He has given climate presentations at the national, regional, state, and local levels.

We will quickly note how the situation is worsening despite positive efforts to stop it. We’ll cover the challenge of tipping points which can accelerate global warming and cause irreversible damage. We’ll briefly cover the most important things we can do to stop it, most of which take little time or effort and do not involve significant lifestyle changes. Finally, I’ll summarize how we can help accelerate reducing U.S. carbon pollution through the Inflation Reduction Act, the most important climate legislation ever passed. The U.S. is the world’s worst carbon polluter over time and we must move faster to cut our carbon pollution.

We’ll provide sandwiches and drinks for those who come. See you there!
