Our climate is changing on Prince Edward Island. Sea level is rising, temperatures are warming, and more rain and snow is falling. At risk are our coastlines, our drinking water, our natural environments, our communities, and our infrastructure.

The full-day session takes place April 29, 2011, in room 243 of 黑料老司机's Don and Marion McDougall Hall.
The day will be comprised of 20 minute presentations (including time for questions). Efforts will be made to allow equal time for academic, RAC, community and practitioners. The event will include nutrition breaks and lunch, and will be free.
The overall theme of the session is 鈥淧reparing for Climate Change Adaptation.鈥
