Zoom into Archaeology: Heritage at Risk
Time: 3:30 pm til 4:30 pm
Location: Online; Central Daylight Time
Description: Join us for the next installment of FPAN's "Zoom into Archaeology" series: "Heritage at Risk" by FPAN Regional Director Barbara Clark!
Archaeology is not something that everyone considers when thinking about climate change, but it should be part of the conversation. Many of Florida's coastal sites are at risk due to storm surge, sea level rise and other factors dealing with climate change. Learn how archaeological sites will be impacted and how you can take action.
This presentation is most appropriate for teens and adults, but is family-friendly.
