DESCRIPTION:In the coming years, drought, hotter temperatures, and extreme weather will 
 team up to reduce crop yields around the world, making food scarcer and 
 more expensive. Here in California, we now have first hand experience, as 
 the state comes off of its driest year on record. About 500,000 acres of 
 farmland are expected to be left idle this year, shrinking production of 
 some of California’s staples, like dairy, produce, and nuts. Low income 
 communities bear the brunt of the drought, hit first and worst by rising 
 food prices and shrinking job opportunities in the agricultural 
 sector.\nJoin us for a panel discussion of the challenges that drought and 
 climate change bring to our food system, as well as creative models of 
 resilience in California and beyond, featuring:\n\nArmando Nieto, Community 
 Food and Justice Coalition (CFJC)\nJeanne Merrill, California Climate and 
 Agriculture Network (CalCAN)\nAshEL Eldridge, Alliance for Climate 
 Education (ACE)\nModerated by Jessy Gill, CFJC\n\n
