From a Piedmont Community Church press release:
The next Piedmont Forum features Dr. Andrew Guzman, Professor of International Law at U.C. Berkeley and author of the new book, Overheated: The Human Cost of Climate Change.
Even if the ten warmest years since 1880 have all occurred since 1998, Guzman realizes that his warnings about the human costs of global warming still might come across as alarmist. “But,” he writes, "that's because we should be alarmed."
He believes that there has been too much discussion about the science of climate change, and not enough about the likely consequences — things like famine, war and mass migration.
At the Forum, which is free and open to the public, he will go into details about these and other issues, including ways we can make a difference in our everyday lives.
The event takes place on Sunday, March 17 from 5 to 6:30 pm in the Piedmont Community Church Chapel, located at 400 Highland Ave, Piedmont.
