next dallas sierra club general meeting: tuesday, may 13 at 7 pm (refreshments at 6 pm)

By the year 2050, world population is projected to reach nearly 9.2 billion according to the United Nation’s “medium scenario” (up from 6.7 billion today).   That’s not even 50 years away. That means the environmental challenges that our children, and grandchildren, will only grow more difficult. The overwhelming majority of growth in world population will occur in the developing world. Studying these hot spots for population growth is the first step to facing the problem. And last November Dallas Sierra Club member Gayle Loeffler did just that. Gayle is the Chair of the Dallas Group Sierra Club Population Committee, and holds similar post at the state and national level. She journeyed to Ethiopia where she saw first hand the problems of rapid population growth.

Come to our May meeting and find out what Gayle learned on her trip to Ethiopia.

Everyone is welcome. You don't have to be a Sierra Club member.

Join us for refreshments before the meeting. We know it is hard to get off work, get something to eat, and make it to the Sierra Club meeting on time.  And you can get mighty hungry if you wait until after the meeting to eat. Starting at 6:00 pm, we'll help tide you over with refreshments.  After the meeting, we'll meet at a local restaurant for food and fellowship.
