The Bangor Daily News hosted a discussion last Thursday with UMaine Climate Change Institute research assistant professor Sean Birkel, professor Jessica Leahy from UMaine’s School of Forest Resources, Appalachian Mountain Club research director Sarah Nelson, and New England Outdoor Center founder and owner Matthew Polstein about how climate changes can impact Maine. Their answers to a question emphasize the need to recognize the very real impacts of climate change, while keeping them in perspective, and to look for opportunities to adapt and to address the underlying causes of these changes.
