This special event is scheduled for Wednesday, Sept. 25, at the Branford House on UConn's Avery Point campus in Groton, featuring Dr. Johnson in conversation with The Nature Conservancy. A policy expert, writer, and co-founder of the non-profit think tank Urban Ocean Lab, Dr. Johnson is focused on solutions to the climate crisis. Her latest book, "What If We Get it Right?: Visions of Climate Futures," will be released in September. Along the beautiful and poignant backdrop of the Connecticut coastline, Dr. Johnson will explore our relationship with the ocean in conversation with TNC's Sally McGee, director of climate and strategic initiatives for TNC's Global Aquaculture Program. NBC Connecticut Meteorologist Rachael Jay will attend the conversation as moderator. People have an enormous impact on water. But oceans are affecting people too, often much more than we realize. Let's define the future for oceans and people. Join Dr. Johnson and TNC for this important moment in nature's story.
