The Nantucket Conservation Foundation and the Linda Loring Nature Foundation collaborate to bring Climate Change awareness and education to Nantucket.

In September 2023, we launched Nantucket’s Climate Change Summit to explore and discuss local impacts and actions on the island. Join us this winter to keep the education and conversation going!

As an evolution of our previous Nantucket Coastal Ecology Class, join us for a series of FREE Zoom Lectures and in-person field trips bringing Climate Change information to the public.

March 20: Virtual presentation

This lecture will explore the different coastal habitats found on Nantucket including their ecological importance and how they will adapt to predicted climate change. Topics covered include general ecology and natural history of coastal Nantucket, discussion of coastal processes, current nature-based coastal resilience efforts and potential future coastal responses. This lecture is stand alone but will build off information from the previous lecture.

The lecture is FREE and open to all, but registration is required here.
