Climate in Maine
Recent polling from the Yale Program on Climate Change Communication indicates most Mainers think global warming is happening and caused mainly by human activities. While some of Maine’s resources are vulnerable to climate change, Maine has resources that can be solutions as well. People in Maine are noticing a changing climate. New clean energy businesses are starting up. Offshore wind is blowing. Maine has a new Climate Council.
What do climate impacts and solutions mean to Mainers?
