Title of Event: A HOT PLANET NEEDS COOL KIDS
with Bainbridge Author,
JULIE HALL
When: Saturday, May 17, 2008 11:00 AM
Location: Eagle Harbor Book Company
Description:
A HOT PLANET NEEDS COOL KIDS: UNDERSTANDING CLIMATE CHANGE & WHAT YOU CAN DO ABOUT IT
Bainbridge author Julie Hall and Sarah Lane, Editor in Chief of Green Goat Books, present the *Kids' Climate Change Challenge.* The presentation is a fun, lively, and interactive game designed to get kids 8 and up and their parents to:

1. think about climate change and its causes,
2. do things on the spot that reinforce positive and effective pro-planet ways of thinking, and
3. imagine and commit to future actions designed to combat climate change.

The presenters are providing a handout on how parents can effectively talk to their kids about climate change and why they should. Participants are provided with the *Climate Change 101: Starter Kit of Ideas for Change.* Participants are invited to sign the *Change for Climate Change Pledge.* Julie Hall will sign copies of her book.
