Greg Czarnecki, Climate Change and Research Coordinator for DCNR, gave a presentation at the Watershed Congress in March on the impact of Climate Change on State Parks and Forests.

Czarnecki discussed damage caused by flooding, insect borne illnesses and changes in plant and animal life from the ongoing effects of climate change on Pennsylvania's state parks and natural areas.

A video of that presentation is now available from the Delaware RiverKeeper.
