Tonight's programming:

Climate Action Committee Presents: Solar Energy Roundtable Discussion,

Choir Rehearsal, Millenialish Group


About the Roundtable:

WBUUUC members are making choices to reduce carbon emissions and slow climate change. Attend the Roundtable Discussion this evening and learn about experiences with home solar collectors, batteries, heat pumps, and solar garden signups. Learn why WBUUC members drive EVs and hybrid cars. If you are thinking about investing in climate friendly technology, for the planet and your pocketbook, now is the time before federal subsidies disappear for cars at the end of September and for solar panels at the end of December.
