Berks Nature, the leading agent for the conservation of the environment in Berks County, will conduct the 14th annual State of the Environment Breakfast at 7:30 a.m., November 3, 2022, at the DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel in Reading. Meteorologist Lauren Casey, with Climate Central, will narrate a deep dive into the science behind extreme weather and the impact these forces have on Berks County.

Extreme weather events such as unprecedented flooding, massive wildfires, drought and historic storms are on the rise across the country. This event will help participants better understand why our weather is changing and what we can do to prepare. It is imperative that we deepen our understanding as a community of these new weather patterns, their consequences and what can be done collectively to live through these changes.
