Description

Summit on Sustainability & the Environment

Building Resiliency for a Climate of Change

–SOLD OUT–

Don’t miss the 2013 Summit on Sustainability & the Environment presented by the Mid-Ohio Regional Planning Commission (MORPC), taking place Tuesday, October 8 from 8am–4:30pm at COSI in Columbus, Ohio. The Summit is MORPC's signature environmental conference, bringing hundreds of community leaders together to explore and share sustainable solutions.

The Summit theme, Building Resiliency for a Climate of Change, will explore ways to use adaptive management practices to build regional economic competitiveness and minimize climate-related impacts on public health, natural resources and infrastructure.

Extreme weather events are increasingly threatening effective management of water supplies and infrastructure. The Summit lunchtime program includes a panel of experts delving into the important issue of climate change and the value of preparing for the impacts on our communities. The discussion will be moderated by NBC4 Meteorologist Ben Gelber and includes:

  • Kevin Reardon, Emergency Services Director for the Central-Southeast Ohio Region of the American Red Cross
  • Ram Sastry, Director of Distribution Research & Technology at American Electric Power
  • Dan Mushalko, General Manager, Operations & Program Director, WCBE-FM and host of “The Amazing Science Emporium”

The Summit also includes three concurrent breakout sessions with tracks focused on local government, business and community.
