    For the evening’s lecture, Darren McCollum will delve into what human activities are changing the climate of the planet.  A lead forecaster meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Flagstaff, Mr. McCollum will present results from the National Climate Assessment including what changes are being observed in the southwest United States and Arizona, as well as the predicted changes for the rest of this century.  There will be an open discussion with a Q & A session.
