Climate Change is a phenomenon that is evident globally and locally, with rising sea levels, changes in storm activity and warming seas all causing significant impacts on our island home.
Our vision of the future should include awareness of the impacts of Climate Change together with action in response to the increasing threats.
What kind of legacy do we want to leave for our children and grandchildren?
Please come and join us to learn more about the impacts and risks that climate change presents to Bermuda and the local community, we all need to be accountable.
Dr. Mark Guishard is a BIOS Adjunct Scientist and a Chartered Meteorologist. Mark recently completed the Climate Change & Bermuda reports for BIOS. Formerly the Director of the Bermuda Weather Service (part of the Bermuda Airport Authority), he is now the Authority’s Chief Administrative Officer.
