Climate change is impacting our world rapidly, and its potential impacts are immense and closer than many people believe. In this two-part class, we will discuss how climate change is happening, evidence humans are the cause, current and future impacts, and solutions that are being enacted. While news on this topic can be difficult to hear, we must understand the seriousness of climate change if we are ever going to solve it.

Russ Benedict has taught biology at Central College since 2002 and has spent most of his life exploring the prairies and woods of the Midwest. Although his graduate education emphasized mammals, he loves to study birds, insects, plants and all other aspects of nature. His favorite word is billions. (He will explain.)
