The historic rain and flooding that overwhelmed dams in Midland, MI are a dramatic reminder that climate change is a force that is shaping Michigan now. Unless we implement significant changes to how we create energy, use the land, consume, and protect our most vulnerable, the events like those that took place on Tuesday, May 19, 2020, will just be the tip of the proverbial iceberg. Michigan's citizens and infrastructure are at risk.
Join us to watch stunning new videos about the flooding and hear a 90-minute in-depth conversation with a panel of Michigan-based experts as we envision a new future for Michigan. Audience Q&A to follow the conversation. Wednesday, June 24, 2020, 10:00 - 11:30 AM EDT. After the Flood: Visioning Michigan's Future - Climate, Energy, and Infrastructure
