Saturday May 14th 7pm

SSI Library Program Room

Geologist Steven Earle talks about his new book A Brief History of the Earth’s Climate: Everyone’s Guide to the Science of Climate Change. An accessible, illustrated, myth-busting guide to the natural evolution of the Earth’s climate over 4.6 billion years, how and why human-caused global warming and climate change is different and more dangerous, and how to counter skeptics and deniers with sound science.

Steven Earle, PhD, has worked in the Earth Sciences, has developed and taught university Earth Science courses for almost four decades, and is author of the widely used university textbook, Physical Geology, now in its second edition. He participates in climate change research and community engagement with climate change solutions including low-carbon transport initiatives, heating systems, and land stewardship. He lives with his family on a sustainable farm on Gabriola Island, Canada.
