Join us at the library for coffee, socializing, and learning something new.
This week, we'll learn about monsoons around the world, their link to oceans, and their importance to agriculture and life in tropical regions. We will also learn the consequences of monsoon failure and what happens when rains fail to fall during the wet season.
