Dana NuccitelliClimate change ... how much do you think about it?  Cork it, it's not enough.

Climate change is a weedy and polarizing topic. Some say we're doomed to climate catastrophe, while others say concerns are overblown and we should focus on expanding fossil fuel production in a bid for "energy dominance." 

Dana Nuccitelli, our speaker, will dissect both sides and make a case that while climate changes poses a huge challenge, with the help of clean technologies, addressing the climate crisis while meeting our energy needs is entirely possible.

Who's Dana Nuccitelli? An environmental scientist with a bachelor's degree in astrophysics from UC Berkeley and a master's degree in physics from UC Davis. He is the Research Manager for the nonprofit climate advocacy group Citizens' Climate Lobby and a climate journalist who has written for Skeptical Science since 2010, for The Guardian from 2013 to 2018, and for Yale Climate Connections since 2018. Dana has also published 10 peer-reviewed climate papers, most notably on the 97% expert consensus among climate scientists that humans are primarily responsible for the observed global warming since 1950. What a guy.
