Hello OLCV Book Club members! 

It’s been a long time since we’ve held the OLCV Book Club, so I wanted to let you know about a different kind of book event coming up that I thought you might enjoy. On Tuesday, November 9th, a group of OLCV volunteers known as the Metro Climate Action Team (learn more about them here!) are hosting a special presentation featuring author, PSU scientist, and climate activist Dr. John Perona. Sign up here to attend this virtual event! 

Dr. Perona’s book, From Knowledge to Power, is a climate activist’s handbook that addresses climate change from multiple angles, for “ordinary citizens with extraordinary commitments.” Unlike our usual Book Club, you’re not expected to read this book beforehand--Dr. Perona will be giving us a special preview of the book, which hasn’t even been released yet. 

Special Event with Dr. John Perona: From Knowledge to Power 
Hosted by the Metro Climate Action Team (MCAT) and OLCV 
Tuesday, November 9th, 2021
6:30pm to 8:00pm via Zoom

“To solve the climate crisis,” Dr. Perona writes, “we must call on the best thinking from all who share the vision of a thriving, healthy planet.” I’m looking forward to hearing more at this inspiring and informative special event! I hope you’ll join us.

I’ll be in touch soon to announce the next OLCV Book Club (that’s right, it’s coming back)!

Best,
