Science in the Virtual Pub is a bi-weekly program where you can grab a drink and engage in some friendly science! Every other Thursday we'll have a speaker on some interesting aspect of science followed by rich conversation. Meetings are held on Zoom and links to join are sent upon registration.

Fun with maps and data from the New York Climate Change Science Clearinghouse Dr. Ingrid Zabel, Climate Change Education Manager, The Paleontological Research Institution Thinking about climate change and its impacts is not usually fun, but exploring maps and data is! We’ll explore resources on the New York Climate Change Science Clearinghouse (https://nyclimatescience.org/), a portal to climate change information for New York State. The Clearinghouse was developed to help local governments make scientifically sound decisions, but the maps and data available on it can be interesting and useful to teachers, students, researchers, and the general public. We’ll explore some maps and data together and hopefully learn something about climate change along the way.
