As always, we will discuss 350 Mass' campaigns for 2023-24, and review local and statewide developments and opportunities in climate and energy advocacy. We will also hear from our members who participated in the March to End Fossil Fuels in New York City this past Sunday. 

 

Here are a few additional items and actions for your attention:

Evaluating Climate Solutions: A National Forum Series. Are the various proposed climate solutions effective, scalable, affordable, technically possible, and politically feasible? Come to a series of virtual forums by national experts to explore the options. See information and registration for all forums here.

(final forum in the series:) Creating Sustainable Systems: Soil, Carbon, and Food. Thu, Sep 28, 7:30 pm.
