“The Past, Present and Future of Climate Change”
Free public forum welcomes environmentalist
Zach Scheel, Dr. Peter Joseph of the Climate Reality Project
and space systems engineer Patrick Marinchek
in a panel discussion about climate change, clean-tech and renewable power with Lenny Mendonca, director at McKinsey & Company
and founder of the Half Moon Bay Brewing Company
What:
Antarctica may very well be the last virgin continent, yet the Antarctic Peninsula is one of the most rapidly warming regions on Earth. In December 2012, twenty-one Stanford MBA students accompanied Dean Garth Saloner and a select group of business leaders to “the ice” to study the past, present and future of climate change. The majestic, glacier-filled expanse provided the setting for an immersive journey that explored climate change from a 360-degree perspective and explained how we have arrived at our current, precarious global climate situation; what needs to be done moving forward; and how business leaders can work with governments and social sector organizations to tackle the challenges of transforming economies and energy systems around the world. One of these students, Zach Scheel, will be participating in a panel discussion with Dr. Peter Joseph, head of the Northern California chapter of the Climate Reality Project, Patrick Martinchek, a Stanford MBA student and space systems engineer and moderator Lenny Mendonca in a discussion about climate change and what the future holds at this special April 25 installment of Brews and Views at the Half Moon Bay Brewing Company.

Barry- I hope that you’ll keep me in the loop! And…I hope it will be “up here” and not in HMBay. (I am weary of the traffic…)

Too bad we can’t support the new bookstore at te harbor. It’s much closer to Moss Beach than Half Moon Bay is… and the book is about Moss Beach.

I see the point of a local celebration in Moss Beach; maybe someone will organize one. But Bay Book Co. in Strawflower shopping center in HMB has a long history of promoting and selling new works by Coastside writers, for which many local writers and readers have been grateful and/or hopeful. Wouldn’t hurt sales of June Morrall’s book to celebrate in both communities!

Bay Book is where June always had her book signings. She had planned a book signing there for the Moss Beach book as well, and wanted Michael & I to join her. Kevin had expected it. In addition (as Kevin pointed out), his wife Lynne’s family is mentioned in the book, as she grew up in MB, with deep family roots there.
I like the idea of something in MB, though there are no bookstores in MB proper. Anyone who put the event together would have to have the energy & resources to coordinate it.
Dave Cresson is interested in the historical aspect, and a tribute to June might be appropriate at his historical museum.
I personally have invested so much time & energy into the book already - it would not have been published if I had not done the final proofs/editing and Epilogue, in addition to all of the work we did prior, including photography & interviews - that I don’t have any more energy to invest in it. I lived it for 2 years. I have an advanced copy of the book for my efforts, and it looks good.
That being said, if Kevin or anyone else wants to honor June and promote the book, I am all for it.
