The event will be 1:30 to 4 p.m. Nov. 11 in the Thompson Center at the University of Nebraska-Omaha, 6705 Dodge St, Omaha, NE 68182 .
The Summit will explore the political conversations happening across the country when it comes to action on climate change, and how we might solve this global challenge through bipartisanship.
