The event will take place at CEC’s Environmental Hub at 1219 State St on Wednesday, November 6 at 5:30 pm.

Sherri Goodman, author of Threat Multiplier, will offer insights into the evolving thinking of military leaders on climate change, their contingency plans, and the potential global conflicts ahead. A Senior Fellow at the Wilson Center’s Environmental Change and Security Program and Polar Institute, and Secretary General of the International Military Council on Climate & Security, Sherri Goodman is credited with educating a generation of US military and government officials about the nexus between climate change and national security.
