Re: “UNESCO Talks Sustainability at the UA”
192 nations, almost all of the world, have signed onto the Paris Climate Agreement. It enters into force on Friday, November 4. Having this UNESCO meeting in Tucson is an honor worthy of a great city. Ignore the cranks. The world knows that human caused climate change is serious. We will share solutions that can save us from crashing headlong into real barriers to smart growth policies. Come join us and learn!
