On June 28, Coastal Rivers hosted its first ever Community Climate Conversation. People from across the region, among them business owners, educators, scientists, and students, gathered at Round Top Farm in Damariscotta to discuss the risks and opportunities climate change poses for the community. The event is part of Coastal Rivers’ broader climate strategy, which includes efforts to strengthen local climate resilience. By sharing unique thoughts and perspectives in both small and large group settings, participants united around specific problems and potential solutions that they, and the land trust, could prioritize to promote a better climate future.
