Extinction Rebellion’s 30-minute presentation will be the featured talk of the Riverdale-Yonkers Society for Ethical Culture’s Sunday program. Every Sunday, RYSEC offers a program devoted to personal ethics and/or social justice. The program also includes live music, a time to share personal joys and concerns, and a few moments to talk about the featured topic with a partner in the audience. RYSEC also has an Ethics for Children program which meets concurrently with its adult programs. For more info, check out www.rysec.org.
The planet is in ecological crisis: we are in the midst of the sixth mass extinction event this planet has experienced. Scientists believe we may have entered a period of abrupt climate breakdown. This is an emergency.
In this public talk, climate speakers from Extinction Rebellion will share the latest climate science on where our planet is heading, discuss some of the current psychology around climate change, and offer solutions through the study of social movements.
Everyone is welcome and there will be time to ask questions and discuss afterwards. Entry is free.
