The meeting will be held at the Franklin Senior Center, 10 Daniel McCahill Street, Franklin, from 7:00 – 9:00 PM, beginning with an informal social at 6:30 PM. It is open to members of the public at no charge.
Prideaux has been studying climate change for more than 20 years. His talk will focus on the impacts and causes of climate change, the actions we need to take, and what it means for Massachusetts and the Northeast. He will also discuss why some have been confused about the science of climate change. Prideaux, who uses humor in his presentation, will also highlight some of the initiatives being undertaken by Sustainable Wellesley to support residents in taking steps that can make an impact in their town and region. The talk will be followed by an opportunity to ask questions.
Prideaux, who holds degrees in physics and business and is pursuing a master’s degree in sustainability at Harvard Extension School, has spoken to many organizations, including serving as a keynote speaker at a statewide meeting of the Garden Club Federation of Massachusetts. His talks have been very well received with participants describing them as “hugely informative, intelligent, visually appealing, and very lively with every member of the audience learning something."
