COOL: Women and Girls Leading the Way to a Sustainable Future
6-7:30 p.m.
Vail Interfaith Chapel | Vail
Author/photographer Paola Gianturco will share slides and stories from “COOL: Women leaders Reversing Global Warming,” the first book to document the work of women and girl climate leaders worldwide, all courageous, creative and effective.
For example, you’ll meet:
- an Inuit woman activist in the Arctic
- the Lord Mayor of Sydney Australia
- a chemist who is creating bio-plastics for LEGO
- indigenous women planting mangrove forests in Sri Lanka
- teen-agers whose strikes have escalated awareness of climate change everywhere
Best, each of these women and girls suggest ideas that you can do to help reverse global warming.
