Fernandez Cited in Press Herald Article on Climate Change Challenges
Ivan Fernandez, a professor in the Climate Change Institute and School of Forest Resources at the University of Maine, was mentioned in the Portland Press Herald article, “Sea change: Challenge of climate change presents opportunity for new energy.” The article focused on a recent Envision Maine event to discuss climate change and Maine’s economy. More than 300 business owners, civic leaders and scientists attended the event which featured 30 presentations on the many threats associated with a warming climate, according to the article. Fernandez suggested the best response for dealing with climate change challenges is to multiply the ways residents creatively address interlinked economic and ecological challenges.
