Speakers air climate concerns at UMD

Here.

Excerpts:
...John Bullard, the former New Bedford mayor, told students and faculty how the state and region are fighting climate change.
Bullard’s own version of “An Inconvenient Truth” — he was trained by Al Gore himself on how to present it — drew a crowd even in the middle of the day, when most classes are held.
“This isn’t about saving the planet,” Bullard said while walking across the front of the library browsing area. “It’s about saving us.”
...
“It would be nice to have leadership from the White House on this, but if not, you have to look for leadership where you can find it,” Bullard said. “I’m surprised there’s not more anger around this injustice.”
We're not all as gullible as you are, John.
