SUMMARY:Climate Resiliency - What’s Needed\, What’s Possible
DESCRIPTION:As we continue to recover and rebuild in communities ravaged by floods across central Vermont we were once again reminded that our state needs to take proactive action to build the resilience we need.  We must reduce flood risks with nature-based solutions\, invest in climate-resilient infrastructure\, improve government response and capacity\, and implement a suite of funding solutions to make these critical investments.  Join us on Monday January 8th 2024 for Climate Resiliency – What’s Needed\, What’s Possible to learn more about these solutions and how you can get involved in creating a more resilient Vermont.

SUMMARY:Making Big Oil Pay: A Deep- Dive on the Policy Plan
DESCRIPTION:As flood waters recede and Vermonters begin to rebuild\, two things are becoming clear. Disasters like these are extraordinarily expensive. The costs to repair damage to homes and infrastructure will be astronomical\, not to mention the destruction of priceless memories\, heirlooms\, and lives. And second\, this storm was not a fluke. Come learn how those who profited off the dirty energy systems that caused the climate crisis should be the ones to pay the price.

SUMMARY:The Opportunity In Modernizing Vermont’s Renewable Energy Standard
DESCRIPTION:Join us to learn about Vermont’s current Renewable Energy Standard (RES)\, and how its 2032 requirements are not going far enough to help reduce our carbon pollution and combat climate change. A more robust RES that requires 100% renewable energy and more in-state renewable energy generation is the answer Vermont needs. Hear from panelists from VNRC\, Conservation Law Foundation and VPIRG as we dig into the details of proposed changes to the RES and leave time for questions from attendees.
