Today, April 2nd, Lindblom hosted a webinar session that encompassed the topic of climate change and the effects this could have on our lives today and in the future. "Why should we care?" is a very demanding question Snow Adams brought to the forefront of the conversation so eloquently. There were three expert panelists (two present and one joining virtually) and one student expert who expounded upon the general and personal devastation that could arise because of the increase in global warming. Many would beg to differ that global warming does not exist and is irrelevant to the routine function of daily lives internationally. Through passion and discussion of previously examined statistics, stories, and past experiences, we brought very irrefutable evidence to counter that argument. Ironically during the live session, the session crashed. To the amazement of us all, everyone was prompted to stay calm and this was the case. It was amazing! The answers were very well thought out, relevant, and engaging for the audience present and through the web. It was an experience that could not be matched with anything! The collaboration to put this together was outstanding and all because people with passion and the will to spread knowledge came together and wanted to prompt change and awareness. Thanks to the Global Nomads Group, Elena, Michael, Abigail, Louis, Rachel, Grace, Snow, Faith, Yaira, Krystal, the audience, and myself, we had an amazing time!
