The Science of Climate Change in New England — Home of one of the World's Fastest Changing Climates
New England is warming faster—and losing its snow cover more quickly—than global averages. Rising seas, intensifying droughts, and severe flooding are no longer distant possibilities; they’re emerging across our region right now. Yes, we’ll still see those classic bitter winters and heavy snowfalls, but they’re becoming fewer and farther between.
Join us for an eye‑opening presentation with UUCGL member and climate researcher Professor Stephen Young, who will break down the changes already reshaping New England, the science behind these shifts, and what the future may hold for our communities, landscapes, and seasons.
This talk draws from Professor Young’s latest publication in the journal Climate (December 2025), co‑authored with his son, Joshua Young.
