Eaarth: Making Life on a Tough New Planet
by Bill McKibben
Twenty years ago, with The End of Nature, Bill McKibben offered one of the earliest warnings about global warming. Those warnings went mostly unheeded: now, he insists, we need to acknowledge that we’ve waited too long, and that massive change is not only unavoidable but already underway.

This program, open to everyone, is free with the $3 per vehicle Nature Center admission. Pre-registration is required.

Beaver Lake Nature Center, an Onondaga County Park, is located at 8477 East Mud Lake Road, 3 miles west of Baldwinsville off of Route 370. For more information, call the Nature Center at 638-2519 or visit www.OnondagaCountyParks.com.
