Batavia Public Library's New Lyceum Lecture Series continues with "Climate Change: What Can We Do About It?" at 7 p.m. Tuesday, June 4, at the library, 10 S. Batavia Ave.

America's "debate" about Global Warming contains too much political rhetoric and posturing and too little attention to the scientific findings. What exactly do we know-and what can we actually predict-about the Earth's changing climate? And what, if anything, can we do about it?

With Raymond Wiggers, whose past positions include geologist and field inspector for the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency, open-space advocate and park-improvement program director, chief horticulturist for a New York City landmark garden, National Park Service ranger, commercial greenhouse manager and orchidist, and professor on the faculties of Barat College of DePaul University and Lake Forest College.

The lecture is free; however, registration is required. Register online at www.BataviaPublicLibrary.org or call the library reference desk, (630) 879-1393, ext. 200.

The New Lyceum Lecture Series 2018-2019 season is sponsored by the Batavia Public Library Foundation.
