Climate Change Study with UMaine Augusta

From Researchers at the University of Maine at Augusta:

Researchers from the University of Maine at Augusta are interested in learning more about how Mainers think about climate change and other major social changes.

These issues affect people differently, and so people think about them differently We will use focus groups and photography to explore the many ways Mainers view current issues in climate change and other social changes.

We want to hear from YOU! Every perspective and every level of knowledge is WELCOME and HELPFUL!

Help us BUILD this community conversation TOGETHER!

Meeting dates and times:

Where: Skidompha Library (Porter Hall)

When: Saturday, November 9th and Saturday, November 16th from 10 a.m. to noon. (We’ll need you to attend both sessions.)

What: We will ask you to attend two focus group discussions on 11/9 and 11/16. In between those sessions, we will ask you to take 1 to 3 photographs of things, places, or events that came to mind during our first discussion. We will talk about these photographs in the second session.
