SUMMARY:Coffee & Climate: Organic Lawncare Edition
DESCRIPTION:A healthy environment – from oceans and watersheds to soils and shorelines – has a higher capacity to adapt to and recover from climate change. The way we care for our lawns and landscapes has a direct influence on the health of these ecosystems\, starting with our soils. \nOur monthly Coffee & Climate conversation focused on organic lawn and landscape care\, and each city’s ordinances. On Friday\, August 13\, 2021\, we discussed organic lawncare basics and the best things to do for your lawn this fall. Organic land care expert Chip Osborne also joined our Coffee & Climate to share his knowledge about maintaining lawns without the use of pesticides. \nUnfortunately\, the recording of this Coffee & Climate is not available\, but you can read our newsletter from that month.

SUMMARY:Maine's Offshore Wind Roadmap: Charting the Course
DESCRIPTION:This event has ended. \nOffshore wind presents a generational economic and energy opportunity for Maine. As an abundant source of clean and renewable energy\, offshore wind has the potential to help free Maine from its over-reliance on fossil fuels and to curb climate-altering emissions & protect our state’s environment for future generations. The Governor’s Energy Office knows that Maine is an ideal place to responsibly develop offshore wind. Maine’s Offshore Wind Roadmap is a stakeholder-driven development plan that offers an analysis of how Maine’s communities\, fisheries\, and ecosystems can realize economic\, energy\, and climate benefits from offshore wind. \nOn June 13th\, the Portland Sustainability Office hosted Stephanie Watson\, Maine Offshore Wind Program Manager with the Governor’s Energy Office and Bill Needelman\, Portland Waterfront Coordinator to lead a conversation about Maine’s Offshore Wind Roadmap and how offshore wind would diversify Maine’s energy sources to reduce fossil fuel dependence and emissions\, as well as help Maine meet its goal of 100% renewable energy by 2040.  \nWatch the recording of this event.
