Join the SFU community in-person or online on April 4th for Dr. Glenn Flowers’ talk: Understanding Glacier Processes to Decode the Drivers of Glacier Change.

This presentation is about what we think we know is true and happening now and what is wishful thinking about climate change as it will impact where and how we live in Canada. It aims to help propel our society beyond the current infantile rescue fantasies that inform current climate policies so, by way of building strong communities, we and our children can have legitimate, honest hope for the future.
