Climate change and agriculture
Climate change can disrupt food availability, reduce access to food and affect food quality. If this intrigues you, why not attend today’s free webinar on the impact of climate change on local agriculture?
The guest speaker is Jennifer Phillips, assistant professor at Bard Center for Environmental Policy in New York. She will present the latest research on what climate change means for farmers, and how she is working to be more climate resilient on her own farm.
