Canada-United States Law Institute Conference; Severe Weather Readiness; Artists As Leaders

The most recent federal climate assessment report found that climate change is already having an effect on many facets of life in the United States, and its territories.  But those effects don't stop at borders.  A conference in Cleveland will examine the impact of climate change  as it relates to people both here and across our northern border.  Spring has arrived. The change of season brings increased potential for severe weather. We'll discuss storm readiness with the National Weather Service.   Finally, Ideastream's arts and culture team discusses with us how artists can be incorporated into community leadership to spur problem solving.
