Maybe you are retired from the field of electronics, or tech, or engineering, or customer service. Maybe you are a lawyer, or a stay-at-home parent with valuable knowledge about the school systems or town functions. Maybe you are good at making conversation with people you've just met (a truly exceptional gift)! Maybe you don't know your best talents yet.
No matter who you are or what you do, you have something you can "bring to the table" as we scamper to mitigate the worst of the future climate disasters we will inevitably face together. Knowledge is power, and we work to apply climate change knowledge to climate disaster reduction.
