The Alaska Dog Mushers Association is excited to present: Will Steger’s Eyewitness to Climate Change, April 15th, 6pm at the Mushers Hall!
Visit with Will Steger at the Mushers Hall (Farmers Loop Rd) from 6pm to 9pm on April 15th. This FREE evening event will include a Pot Luck dinner, door prizes and a raffle!
“Eyewitness to Climate Change” is Will Steger’s vivid account of the changes that he’s witnessed firsthand, caused by climate change pollutants, in Arctic regions over three decades of polar exploration. Steger shares stunning photographs from his expeditions along with compelling data and satellite imagery to document the deterioration in the polar ice caps.
While the issue is critical, and the presentation is dramatic, Steger’s message is one of hope and empowerment. An understanding of our role in the causes and effects of climate change make this personal. But as Steger explains, solutions are readily available and by making economically and environmentally smart choices people can make a difference.
