Learn How to Convert to Sustainable Living - November 07, 2007
The Williamstown “COOL” (CO2 Lowering) Committee invites the community to come learn about things that everyone can do to fight climate change. This two-part event will begin with a potluck supper at 6 pm, speaker and program at 7 pm. Gatherings will be held on November 14 and 28 at the First Congregational Church in Williamstown.
On the 14th, New Yorker columnist Elizabeth Kolbert will introduce an initiative aimed at getting people to look at their own habits and take a “COOLChallenge” to reduce their carbon emissions. Matt Barron, a Williams College student, will explain how to get started. There will be time for discussion and questions.
On November 28th, participants will share the results of their “carbon footprint calculations” and the changes they are making. Nancy Nylen, Associate Director of the Center for Ecological Technology will be on-hand to share resources and answer questions about how to implement changes you would like to make in your home and your lifestyle to address climate change.
Williamstown is a member of Cities for Climate Protection and has an action plan to reduce CO2 emissions 10% below 2002 levels by 2010. The COOL Committee is a group of concerned citizens working to implement the town’s plan through education and activism. For more information visit: www.coolwilliamstown.org
The First Congregational Church, United Church of Christ, is located at 906 Main Street (Rt. 2) in Williamstown, MA. The church is fully handicap accessible. Parking is available immediately behind the church off of Chapin Hall Drive.
