April Book Discussion (Start Reading Now!)

 Inspired by the work of our Climate Change Caucus, our April book discussion will focus on a new release about climate change in our own backyard.

 “California Against the Sea: Visions of Our Vanishing Coastline” by Rosanna Xia lovingly describes California’s 1,200-mile coastline and asks, as climate chaos threatens places we cherish, will we finally grasp our collective capacity for change? Xia, a reporter for the Los Angeles Times, talks to Indigenous leaders, community activists, small-town mayors, environmental scientists, and other voices who are forging a climate-wise future.

 You don’t need to read the entire book to join the meeting. You may wish to read just Chapter 3, which focuses on Pacifica, home to several of our League members. Or dip into another chapter that interests you. Don’t have time to read a single page? You’re welcome to register, too, and we believe you’ll still find the discussion time well-spent. Everyone is welcome.

 Discussion will be led by Margaret Lukens, LWVNCSMC president.

 Our book discussion meeting will take place on Thursday, April 18 from 5 to 6 p.m. via Zoom.
