Pam Martin to lecture at library

Pamela Martin, professor of politics and international relations at Coastal Carolina University, discusses her new edited volume on "Ending the Fossil Fuel Era" on Tuesday, Nov. 10, at 5:30 p.m. at the Waccamaw Library in Litchfield.

Six case studies reveal how individuals, groups, communities and an entire country have taken the first steps out of the fossil fuel era, with experiments that range from leaving oil under the Amazon to ending mountaintop removal in Appalachia. Martin will talk about these cases, their successes and failures, and what we can learn from them for our region and our country.
