Guest Speaker Bob Soule of Go Electric DMV

You are invited to join us tomorrow, Tuesday, November 18, at 7 PM for our next chapter meeting featuring Bob Soule of Go Electric DMV.

Go Electric DMV is a non-profit group formed last year to help homeowners in the DC-Maryland-Virginia area electrify their lives.  The team’s volunteer electric coaches have been trained in Rewiring America’s Electric Coach Course and have experience electrifying their own homes and helping their neighbors do the same—allowing them to enjoy the benefits of a healthier, safer, more comfortable and more convenient home with improved energy efficiency.  The free consultations cover home electrification topics ranging from heat pumps, heat pump water heaters, and induction cooktops to energy audits and weatherization and rooftop solar systems, as well as electric vehicles and charging systems. They are conducted at the homeowner’s convenience by Zoom discussions and emails.  Consultations can be requested at goelectricdmv.org.

Webinar: The Road to True Net-Zero: Climate Reality’s 2030 Vision

For anyone who missed the webinar “The Road to True Net-Zero: Climate Reality’s 2030 Vision”, you can watch the recording here. 

From the meeting description:

During the webinar, former US Vice President Al Gore provided his unique insights and perspectives on the climate crisis, while I shared Climate Reality’s renewed organizational vision and plan – aimed at encouraging the progress necessary by 2030 to reach true net-zero by 2050.

Because the science is clear: At net-zero emissions, global warming can stop in as little as three-to-five years and the Earth can begin to heal. That’s a future worth fighting for. With everything we’ve got. 

On the call, we shared more details about our plans to double the number of trained Climate Reality Leaders, as well as our campaign efforts to halve global emissions this decade, halt the expansion of fossil fuel infrastructure destroying our planet, and build a just and healthy tomorrow with clean energy.

This entails:

  1. Reducing Emissions 
  2. Calling out Greenwashing 
  3. Financing a Just Transition 
  4. Strengthening International Cooperation on Climate
