This will take place at Weaver Park, 2205 E Main St, Urbana, IL 61802, and include a discussion on wetlands, prairie, forest, and agricultural ecosystems and how they are being affected by climate change, what to expect in the future, and what we can do as individuals to help mitigate climate change.
