Thoreau & Climate

“Thoreau & Climate” with Rich Piccarreto

This talk examines the extensive data collected by Henry Thoreau of the natural world around him at Walden (1845-1847) and how climate scientists like Richard Primack at Boston University are making use of that data today to better understand climate change in Massachusetts.

Richard Piccarreto is a certified tour guide in Concord, MA; a Cultural Site Interpreter for the Trustees of Reservations at the Old Manse; and Membership & Program Coordinator for the Thoreau Society.
