These days, just about everyone, from the U.S. Chamber of Commerce to the American Farm Bureau, acknowledges the climate is changing and risks from weird weather are rising.

Regular folks are asking, how will it affect me, can we do anything about it, and are there solutions we all can agree on that will conserve our forests, agriculture, rivers, and air for future generations.

This video is the full recording of an event Montana Citizens’ Climate Lobby hosted on May 20th, 2021: Conserving Our Future, The What & Why of Weird Weather in Montana.

Our featured speaker is Dr. Scott Denning from Colorado State University, who’ll explain weird weather in a way that makes sense in his talk ‘Simple. Serious. Solvable’. Plus, he’ll be open to any questions you have!

We’ll also hear perspectives from retired Billings pediatrician Marian Kummer, Clearwater Credit Union’s Paul Herendeen, and Logan Mannix from Mannix Grassfed Beef on how these trends impact our health, our pocketbooks, and our food. Our panelists will address those questions and show how effective solutions can bring real opportunities for a more healthy and prosperous America.

At the end of the presentations Montana state co-leader Kristen Walser from Bozeman presents a short introduction to our organization, a cute video of how our climate solution brings people from political extremes in to meet at the “Far Middle” and extends an invitation to the national conference for CCL in June 2021.

We wrap up with a lively Q&A with our special guests!

Enjoy the video and please consider joining Citizens’ Climate Lobby as a volunteer, our planet needs you!
