Kathy Mattea Speaks! Two-time Grammy winner and famed country music singer Kathy Mattea will be appearing on Wednesday, January 10 at 7pm to discuss climate change and small ways everyone can help. Before becoming a singer, Ms. Matttea was a science major at West Virginia University and has had a life-long interest in environmental issues. She was at the premiere screening of Al Gore's film An Inconvenient Truth and heard his now-famous slide presentation. After this experience, she was chosen to be in the first group of 50 trained by scientists to give the same slide show around the nation. Please come to the Orem City Council Chambers (just south of the Orem Library) at 7pm for this very special program.
For those out there who haven't seen the film, An Inconvenient Truth, the program isn't designed to be 'doom and gloom', point fingers, or exacerbate sensational rhetoric. Quite the contrary, actually. It is organized to illustrate the facts of the issue and, more importantly, propose practical solutions for us common folk.
Space is limited, so check the library site for RSVP info.
