Charleston, S.C. (PRWEB) October 13, 2016 -- Join the South Carolina Aquarium October 19 for a compelling conversation about sea level rise while enjoying some tasty brews. The Aquarium is teaming up with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and Holy City Brewing to present the second installment of the Holland Lifelong Learning series, A Need to Sea Change: Charleston’s Resilience.

Dr. Jeffrey Payne, Director of NOAA’s Office for Coastal Management, will present on local trends in sea level rise, increase in sunny day flooding, impacts of sea level rise on ecosystems and communities, and ways the community can adapt to sea level rise. Attendees are encouraged to grab a beer and come prepared to ask questions and learn more about this critically important topic. The event is $5 per person and starts at 6:30 p.m. at Holy City Brewing. For more information or to purchase tickets, call (843) 577-FISH (3474) or visit scaquarium.org/lifelonglearning.

The Holland Lifelong Learning series enables the Aquarium to offer educational opportunities that will spark inquiry and exploration among an adult audience. The initiative is made possible by a generous contribution by Mary and Mason Holland to the Aquarium’s Watershed Fund. These opportunities reflect the Aquarium’s vision of connecting people with water, wildlife and wild places. The remaining five lectures will focus on issues directly impacting our oceans and the Lowcountry. Each lecture is facilitated by industry leaders and takes place in a unique setting aimed to inspire and educate those who attend.
