January Speaker Series - Laura Sacks: The Climate Crisis

the winter season of our Museum Speaker Series begins Thursday, January 26th with the West Kootenay Climate Hub!

Climate activist Laura Sacks will address why and how climate change is manifesting itself both globally and locally.

Come out to the Museum at 6:00 pm for an engaging night as Laura interweaves information about the climate crisis with personal stories and experiences shared from the audience. She'll share exciting news about climate solutions and describe some of the initiatives helping to overcome obstacles in addressing the climate crisis.

Laura's Bio: Laura focuses her efforts on climate advocacy and empowering others to take action. She co-founded the West Kootenay Climate Hub and BC Climate Alliance. She is a BC Regional Organizer for the Community Climate Hub initiative, is a trained Climate Reality Leader, and En-ROADS climate ambassador, leading workshops on climate solutions. Before focusing on climate, Laura had a career as a hydrologist, operated a small organic farm, and helped raise two daughters. Her climate work is ultimately driven by her grave concern for her daughters’ future, as well as all other living beings on this beautiful planet.
