Dr. Richard Turco at Grand Canyon
The Bear Valley Springs Cultural Arts Association is a non-profit organization that is offering a special afternoon of fact sharing on two of the biggest hot-button issues concerning many Americans, and hopefully, many other countries.
You are invited to join us June 18 at 3 p.m. in the Oak Tree Country Club for an informative presentation by one of Tehachapi's preeminent experts on climate change, global warming, and the effects of these issues. Dr. Richard Turco is a Distinguished Emeritus Professor of Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences at the University of California, Los Angeles, recently retired in 2011. Among his accolades are that he was the Chair of UCLA's Department of Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, the Founding Director of UCLA's Institute of the Environment and Sustainability, President of the Atmospheric Sciences Section of the American Geophysical Union (AGU), and sat on a panel that drafted the AGU's first policy statement on Global Warming.
Dr. Turco's goal is to educate our community on what we can expect from our climate in the future, what we can do to help, and what new hope there might be for an end to the nagging "Climate Wars." There will be time for questions at the end.
Reservations are necessary. Please contact Linda at (661) 821-1505, or email lsturco1@gmail.com. Then come to the Oak Tree Country Club's Reception area at 29500 N. Lower Valley Road, Tehachapi. Hors d'oeuvres and iced tea will be served, with wine, beer or other soft drinks available for purchase.
