Los panelistas se centrarán en cómo el cambio climático está afectando a la agricultura en Iowa, cómo los agricultores están mitigando y adaptándose al cambio climático, y compartirán por qué este tema es importante para ellos y cómo su fe les llama a responder.
“In Iowa, farmers will be some of the hardest hit by climate change. But they can also take steps to reduce the risk from climate change, to protect the younger generations from food insecurity, and to steward the land for the next generation,” says Stephanie Enloe of the Center for Rural Affairs. “The question of whether to act on climate change is a moral one, and Midwestern farmers are increasingly called to answer.”

Where: Christy 4-H Hall, 220 H Ave, Nevada, IA 50201
