Climate change is both a crisis and an opportunity. Vermont’s Global Warming Solutions Act requires the state to help Vermonters cut energy costs and carbon in an equitable way. Unfortunately, Vermont is falling far short of meeting this obligation. Thankfully, though, tremendous work is underway. Don’t miss this webinar, which will be jam-packed with updates from experts and legislative leaders, overviewing the current state-of-the-state on climate, potential opportunities for action in our biggest energy sectors, and why and how to add your voice to this important conversation. There will also be an opportunity to get your questions answered. Specifically:
-Get a brief, high-level update on Vermont’s emissions and energy landscape from the Energy Action Network’s recently released Annual Progress Report for Vermont,
-Get an important, unique outlook on the legislative session from Climate Solutions Caucus leader Representative Kathleen James.
-Get a high-level overview of transportation, thermal, and electric sector transformation opportunities – and a glimpse at potential 2023 legislative priorities.
-Get your questions answered, with ample time for Q&A
As we gear up for the next legislative session, and continue implementation of all of the critical progress from last year with the historic influx of federal dollars, this webinar is intended to help ground climate-concerned Vermonters in the work underway and what further progress is required. Get your big questions answered, offer your ideas and help us chart the course for the work ahead in meeting Vermont’s climate commitments. We hope you can join us!
