Symposium background
The Pacific Northwest is already seeing impacts from climate change, in the form of receding glaciers, faster snowmelt and milder winters. These changes have potentially devastating effects on flood regimes, water availability and aquatic ecosystems. The better we understand the changes that have already happened and those that are predicted, the better we can plan and prepare for them. This one-day symposium will feature presentations from a range of experts about observed and modelled impacts of climate change on our region's water resources, and policy responses.

Where does your water come from? Where does it all go? Find out answers to these questions, learn tips to conserve water, and ways to protect Puget Sound!
We'll be taking a guided tour of the West Point Water Treatment Plant at Discovery Park to see what happens to all of those things we put down the drain. We'll also learn about some the chemicals that wind up in the Puget Sound, how they get there, and what we can do to keep them out of the system.
Please:
- Plan to arrive 10 minutes early
- Dress for the weather; portions of the tour are outside.
