Climate Emergency: New Federal Funding Opportunities

December 8, 2022 @ 6:30 pm - 8:00 pm

Free

Explore recent federal legislation, with a special emphasis on the Inflation Reduction Act, with a panel of experts. We will explore opportunities for Oregonians to take action to mitigate the climate emergency. Some questions that will be addressed are: What programs are included for greenhouse gas reduction? How will Oregon state benefit in terms of energy? How can households and individuals benefit? What are the opportunities to improve environmental justice for communities of color and low-income communities in Oregon?

Panelists

  • Jeff Hammarlund, PSU Center for Public Service, advisor on climate policy and implementation at the federal level
  • Christy Splitt, Oregon Dept of Energy, Government Relations Coordinator, environmental advocate
  • Julie Williams, founder of Seeds for the Sol
Each panelist will make a brief presentation, followed by audience questions.
