6:30 - 7:30 ~ Presentation by Esperanza Stancioff, UMaine Extension Educator and Chair of the National and Regional Sea Grant Climate Network.

This talk and discussion will focus on some of the current research on how our climate is changing, in what ways might it change in the future, and what are some of the things going on to adapt to those changes. The major area of focus will be on coastal and marine areas of concern,  providing a broad brush of projects like lobsters impacted by warming temperatures and shellfish impacted by ocean acidification amongst others, as well as highlighting Signs of the Seasons: A New England Phenology Program as a citizen science program of how Maine’s citizens are engaged in learning and providing much needed data.
