Earth Day Kennebunkport

EARTH DAY CELEBRATION – April 16 @ 5:30 pm

Earth Day Celebration on Tuesday, April 16 at 5:30 PM

Join your three local land trusts for a climate presentation celebrating Earth Day! As climate change and its harmful effects accelerate, so does the urgency for effective climate action. Learn how various climate policy solutions stabilize the climate and impact sustainability, justice, trade, energy, and income disparity. This interactive climate policy workshop uses MIT Sloan School’s EN-ROADS Climate Policy Simulator to explore our current climate trajectory, how recent legislation has improved our long-term outlook, and how Maine is uniquely positioned to advocate for a stabilized climate and a livable future. Peter Dugas is an EN-ROADS Climate Ambassador, Maine Sunday Telegram Source Award Winner, and a long-time advocate for finding climate change solutions. Peter is the Maine State Coordinator for Citizens Climate Lobby, a nonpartisan grassroots organization focused on practical and equitable climate solutions. He serves as the liaison to the office of Senator Angus King (ME-I). Light refreshments will be served.

The Louis T. Graves Memorial Public Library is located at 18 Maine Street, Kennebunkport; for further information, please call 967-2778 or visit our website at www.graveslibrary.org.
