Climate Change Institute Members Testify for Legislature, Media Reports

Several news organizations including the Kennebec Journal and the Sun Journal of Lewiston carried a Maine Center for Public Interest Reporting article on the testimony of nearly a dozen of the state’s top environmental groups during a legislative hearing Thursday to urge the state to revive its climate change planning. Members of the University of Maine’s Climate Change Institute asked lawmakers to resume work on a report started in 2009 by the group that was designed to guide the state through challenges caused by climate change.
