Climate Change Briefing for Peruvians
It’s not every day that you can spend an evening with several brilliant climatologists and have them give you a simplified mini-course on climate change – a sort of “Global Warming and Glacier Recession 101,” if you will — but that’s what I experienced this past Tuesday (6/17) at Lima’s Catholic University (UCP). What a privilege. El Fotógrafo, I and about 300 other people gathered in the university’s law auditorium to attend a free forum on “Deglacination en el Perú y Cambio Climático.” EF and I care about deglacination because that process is happening to the mountains at the Qoyllur Rit’i shrine, whose rituals we’ve been documenting since 2006.
