UNA- Westhester Annual Meeting, May 2019: Climate Crisis

UNA-Westchester Annual Meeting, May 19th 
Fantastic UNA Westchester Annual Meeting held on May 19th at Harrison Public Library, led by Program Chair, Marcia Brewster and moderated by Patrick Sciarratta, Communications Chair: “Climate Crisis: Westchester Takes Action!”
Tremendous talk and songs by Singer Songwriter Sophia Angelica; great presentation by Dan Shepard from the UN on the situation between the US and the world after the Climate Accord in Paris; followed by a real discussion  with Nina Orville (Co-chair, Energy Committee, Westcheseter Climate Crisis Task Force) and Peter McCartt (Director, Sustainable Westchester and Chair, Climate Crisis Task Force); on what Westchester residents can do to help slow climate change, right here at home. Excellent suggestions from all and lovely Q&A!! Awards were presented to our Model UN exemplars from the Mercy College Model UN Team. A wonderful zero-waste reception was organized by Elisa Zazzera. Bravo.
