Description

Carbon pricing is one measure that many experts believe can be implemented quickly and can dramatically lower carbon emissions. Mary Garton, of the Citizens’ Climate Lobby and the Climate Reality Project will discuss the role of national carbon pricing in addressing the climate crisis. This presentation is aimed to be understandable by those with no previous knowledge, yet educational for those already interested and active in working toward climate solutions.

Mary Garton is a nurse and educator. Ms. Garton has participated in 28 lobby meetings with 15 different members of Congress or their legislative aides. She has been active with Citizens Climate Lobby for 5 years, and believes, like they do, that the best way to fight one’s own climate anxiety is to actively work towards a viable solution.

This event is in partnership with Citizens' Climate Lobby, Ann Arbor Chapter.
