Presented by Lexington Living Landscapes and the Lexington Field and Garden Club.

The evidence is clear: Climate change is here! The effects that scientists have long predicted are occurring and will only intensify in coming years. What does this mean for our native flora and fauna?   And what can one homeowner really do to mitigate a global crisis? Trevor Smith will take you past the bleak headlines and talk about what WE can do.  How our plant choices and simply changing the way we maintain our properties can make a huge difference in our local ecology.  Trevor makes it clear that the power to slow or stop climate change does not rest solely in the hands of government. We can all make a difference. His presentation will leave you inspired and empowered to take action.
