[NaepcA1]

Dear Pacific Northwest Tribal Climate Change Network:

In advance of our call next Thursday, January 5th, 2012 at 11 am Pacific, I am sending call-in information and an updated agenda. As a reminder, John Mankowski, the coordinator of the North Pacific Landscape Conservation Cooperative will be on the call to present information on their tribal engagement strategy for the NPLCC. Sean Finn, the science coordinator for the Great Northern LCC will also be on the call to share information about their efforts. Please don't hesitate to let me know if you have any questions or additions to the agenda. Also, the First Foods profile that I sent out earlier in the month is now available on the ITEP Tribes and Climate Change website at http://www4.nau.edu/tribalclimatechange ... tfoods.asp.

I hope you have all had a happy holiday season and wish you the best in the coming year!

Regards,
Kathy
