<p><strong>Sometimes I wonder just how confused I can become, tossed about by the news, often feeling at a loss from the ongoing climate crisis.</strong></p>
<p><strong> But there is something I can do today -- I can remind you about an upcoming Wednesday, March 23 live-online-and-in-person climate science education program from Morgantown, WV -- featuring a great speaker, Dr. Julie Brigham-Grette.
