During this lunch & learn event, Bridging The Gap’s Executive Director, Kristin Riott, will examine a recent study published by Iowa State University on the projected impacts to the KC area of extreme weather attributed to climate change. Kristin will relate these projections to the potential risks and opportunities that businesses should consider as they plan for the future.

Kristin currently serves on the City of Kansas City, Missouri’s Climate Protection Plan Steering Committee, which is working with a national non-profit, C2ES, on a city resiliency plan template for climate change. She also serves on the area’s Climate Champions team, one of 20 teams in the U.S. so designated by the White House. The KC Climate Champions group is led by Mid-America Regional Council.

This event is $15 for Green Business Network members and $25 for non-members. Registration includes lunch.
