Lifelong Learning: Class #4 - Great Decisions, Climate Change

Go beyond the headlines of today's issues in this lively discussion group that explores significant global concerns. Great Decisions briefing books, published by the Foreign Policy Association, are the primary resource. These impartial materials provide thought-provoking analysis in a written guide complemented by updates and PBS video segments. These books should be available by the end of January 2022.

Registration is required to receive the Great Decisions 2022 briefing book, with the expectation that the material will be read before each class. If possible, we ask that families share one book.

Winter 2022 Lifelong Learning classes will abide by health care restrictions imposed. In the event a class is called due to these restrictions, it will be available on Zoom if the speaker agrees. 

Class #4: Great Decisions, Climate Change

The ideological divide in the United States on the subject of climate change has impeded progress in curbing greenhouse emissions. But extreme weather events at both ends of the thermometer have focused attention on the consequences of inaction. What role will the United States play in future negotiations on climate?

The Friends of the Charlevoix Public Library, with the generous support of Lynne and Mason Rosenthal, present Great Decisions as the offering of the Lifelong Learning Series for Winter 2022. This program is a project initiated by the Friends of the Library as a means of providing an opportunity to develop a greater understanding of topics and issues that impact us all.
