From the devastation of Hurricane Sandy to ever-rising insurance rates, climate change has already begun to take its toll on our community’s standard of living. In a city where affordable housing is scarce and grocery and utility bills are climbing, how can we make ends meet and plan for the future? We may think of climate change as a problem for scientists to solve and world leaders to enforce, but it’s here now, already affecting us all–especially the lives of struggling families.

Join us on December 9th for a #BHeard Community Town Hall on the high cost of climate change, and how we, as a community, can better arm ourselves for an increasingly unpredictable future.  We’ll hear stories from local activists and journalists, challenge our local politicians, and start a new chapter for Brooklynites championing urban environmental activism.

Join the conversation! Submit your questions on climate change on social media using #BHeard and they may be answered live during the broadcast.
