Curious about the role of our food and agriculture system in the climate crisis and what you can do about it?

Join Climate Reality Leader and "Eco-Dietitian", Mary Purdy for this interactive, virtual presentation to learn how our food system is a driver of climate change and simple ways you can make a difference not only with how you buy, eat and prepare food but also how you can advocate both in your community or place of work as well as with simple local and federal policy actions! Join in the discussion as we work together to learn and create solutions.

This event is sponsored by The Climate Reality Project, King County, Washington.
