Richard Taylor, poet and Kentucky State University Professor, will be speaking about “Lincoln, Leadership and Climate Change”, and Andy McDonald, of the Kentucky Solar Partnership, will discuss the science, policy, and politics involved in addressing climate change. Our local and state leaders have been invited, and we will hear from some of them, and from Mayor May, and get an update on the Mayor’s Task Force on Energy Efficiency and Climate Change.

The Frankfort Climate Action Forum is one of hundreds of events taking place around the country on November 3 as part of a National Day of Climate Action. We are highlighting the need for our leaders to step it up and promptly begin to address climate change in a real and meaningful way. You can find out more about the National Day of Action at www.stepitup07.org.
