The time for Clean Energy investment is now. We are at a crossroads where we must have massive investment in our climate coupled with divestment from fossil fuels.
This event highlights the need for clean energy transportation solutions through the following:
- an EV car show
- constituent meetings with elected officials
- networking with leading small businesses, non profits, and community leaders on local solutions and clean energy manufacturing jobs
- Green Jobs discussion
- Electric Vehicle 101
- Letter to the Editor Training
- and more!
