Greg Apodaca, Vision Holder and CEO of Community 2.0 is the speaker at our next Coffee and Climate Crisis Meetup, Wednesday October 2, 2019. Doors open at 7:45am for networking, presentation starts at 8:00 and ends around 9:00am. Stay for more networking through 9:30am. The meetup is at Cross Campus at 85 North Raymond Avenue in Pasadena.
Greg will discuss many ways individuals and organizations can take action to combat the climate crisis. He will discuss the drivers behind the urgency with which we must all act, present research he’s done locally and globally on this topic, and present solutions being implemented in the greater Pasadena area and Los Angeles region.
Greg’s presentation will be interactive and he’ll seek feedback from attendees on what they’d like to see from city leaders, large organization, and environmental groups in terms of leadership, and also support for their own actions.
