Join us for CBF's Brock Environmental Center Climate Lecture Series featuring Carl Little, Founder of Tree Fredericksburg, Ann Jurczyk, CBF's Virginia Urban Restoration Manager, and Daniel Brooks, Virginia Department of Forestry Community Forestry Specialist. They will explore the growing challenges of urban heat islands, how climate change intensifies these effects, and the critical role that urban tree canopy plays in cooling cities, improving air quality, and enhancing community resilience.

This lecture series aims to bring together a diverse group of community members to share their expertise and experiences on the pressing issues surrounding climate change and its impact on the Chesapeake Bay. Don't miss this opportunity to engage in meaningful discussions and learn more about how climate change affects us all.

This series is sponsored by Planetary Technologies, CMA CGM, and Cox Communications.
