PBS North Carolina, NC Science Festival and The North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences Proudly Present: State of Change: Living With Water — Screening and Panel Discussion

Hybrid event
Two ways to join us: online or in person at the NC Museum of Natural Sciences

Please join us in person (or virtually) on Tuesday, April 22, 2025, at 7:00pm EDT, for a special screening of State of Change: Living With Water followed by a panel discussion with local subject-matter experts from around the state who will provide an up-close look at climate change issues and answer your questions in-person and via the virtual chat.

PBS North Carolina launched the State of Change project to personalize the impact of climate change, provide details about the science of the challenges, share solutions to combat the issues and develop resiliency to adapt to it.

State of Change: Living With Water comes to PBS NC this April with stories of North Carolinians across the state who have responded to the challenges of climate change in new and innovative ways. From returning riverbanks to floodplains, adapting our coast with natural infrastructure and reconnecting to our rivers, these innovators are facing the challenges of climate change with perseverance and ingenuity.
