GREAT DECISIONS 2023

What a fascinating year this has been with our programming!  Danielle Beach facilitated on Russian war crimes, while Howard Soroos led an interesting discussion on economic warfare.  Thanks also to Larry Korb for presenting on Iran, and Ambassador Mitchell on China’s world role (thank you, Lane Stone and Diane Schrier!).  Remember that we are on break now until Thursday, September 14.

YOUR HELP NEEDED:  We don’t have a facilitator or presenter for our September topic which is Climate Migration:  The Impact of Climate Change on a Nation’s Population.  Can anyone recommend a contact that I could reach out to?  Thanks for your help.

As climate change accelerates and drought and rising sea levels become more common, millions of people in affected regions must uproot themselves and seek safety elsewhere. Who are these affected individuals, and how might the United States aid them, and be affected by the migration? 

And here’s our lineup for the rest of 2023:
October 12 – Global Famine- Lack of food worldwide (Tom Staal)
November 9 – Energy Geopolitics- The oil and gas industries in flux (Sylvia Linke)
December 14 – Elections in Latin America- The rise of left-wing governments in Latin America (Peter Kent)
