PRESENTS
SECRETS OF THE ICE CAPS
Who is in charge of the global thermostat?

MR. DON WATT
September
25 & 26, 2008 at 7:00 PM

What’s coming next—Global warming? Global cooling? Is man and his use of fossil fuels responsible for the temperature rise observed in the first half of the 20th century? Is it possible to look back in time and see if similar or even greater warming periods as well as extreme cold have occurred in the past? Do the ice core records taken from the vast storehouses of snow and ice in Greenland and Antarctica hold the secrets that can answer these important questions?

Data from the ice cores along with historical records reveal the impact that changing climates have had on the rise & fall of nations. The impact of climate change related to famines and the outbreak of pandemic plagues will also be presented.

CHILDREN’S CREATION SEMINARS
 
A Children’s Creation Seminar for children ages 5 - 12 accompanies each adult seminar.  These seminars are designed for children, presenting the same topic and information that is being offered in the adult seminars. Children will receive an interactive mini-lecture combined with demonstrations, songs, experiments, games, activities and snacks that ALL reinforce the topic.  Critical thinking skills are encouraged.  We have grand time learning, sharing & exploring theories, biology, geology, chemistry and more.

ENJOY OUR FELLOWSHIP TIME  Please bring finger foods for our fellowship time following the seminar. This fellowship time is a great opportunity to ask questions, meet new people, and to visit with the speaker and with friends.

CREATION RESOURCES will be available for purchase at both locations.  DVD's, books, T-shirts, and more will be on display.  FIGI has produced some very nice T-shirts with a creation theme.  All proceeds from the purchase of these T-shirts goes to support the activities of FIGI.
