Los Angeles enjoys one of the most pleasant climates on earth. Our Mediterranean climate is changing. Scientists forecast higher temperatures for the region, as well as deeper and more prolonged droughts, more intense flooding, extreme wildfires and rising ocean levels. Not all is doom and gloom -- there are steps we can take today to address the climate crisis here in Southern California. 

Speaker: Jonathan Parfrey directs Climate Resolve, a Los Angeles-based nonprofit organization focusing on preparing California for climate impacts as well as reducing the state's contribution to the climate problem.
