Conserving Resilience: Puerto Rico and the Changing Climate
March 26, 2019 @ 4:30 pm - 6:00 pm
featuring Javier Arce-Nazario, Associate Professor of Geography
Hurricane Maria devastated Puerto Rico in 2017, but this was not the first time the US citizens who live on the Island have had to contend with natural disaster. This talk will situate the hurricane and its aftermath in the context of Puerto Rico’s long history of environmental challenges and the future crises promised by global climate change.
