DESCRIPTION:San Francisco, CA - Climate change has emerged as one of the most pressing 
 challenges facing the world today.  Scientists predict that global warming 
 will become a leading cause of species extinction over the next several 
 decades.  On Tuesday December 16th a panel of experts and scientists will 
 provide local perspectives on the threat climate change and global warming 
 poses to imperiled Bay Area wildlife at the San Francisco Public Library 
 beginning at 6:00 PM. This educational event will feature speakers from a 
 the Institute for Fisheries Research, Gulf of Farallones National Marine 
 Sanctuary, California Academy of Science, Golden Gate National Recreation 
 Area (GGNRA) and Golden Gate Audobon. \n\nTopics of discussion will include 
 the plight of some of the most important wildlife species threatened by 
 climate change in the Bay Area, including the Pacific Salmon and local 
 marine mammals and birds. The California Academy of Science will give a 
 global report on the devastating impact climate change plays on wildlife in 
 general, and experts from the Golden Gate National Recreation Area will 
 speak about the dangers facing the 16 imperiled species located within the 
 GGRNA, a national park located in San Francisco, San Mateo, and Marin 
 Counties. \n\nThe event is free and open to the public, and coincides with 
 the Irreplaceable: Wildlife in a Warming World, a nation-wide traveling 
 photo exhibit and campaign dedicated to raising awareness and recognition 
 of the severe threat of climate change and global warming to imperiled 
 species, currently on display at the San Francisco Public Library through 
 December 30th.\n\nFor more information please visit
