A roundtable discussion presented by
Clean Air/Cool Planet and E2Tech
and featuring the
Ambassador of Norway to the United States
Based in New England and established in 2000, Clean Air-Cool Planet (CA-CP) works collaboratively with campuses, communities, and corporations to pioneer and scale-up innovative solutions aimed at reducing carbon emissions and preparing for climate change. Through civic engagement activities aimed at science centers, universities, the business sector, states, and local communities, CA-CP has built a strong, grass-roots-based network working to ensure that climate change becomes part of the local, state and national agenda. CA-CP’s mission is to accelerate the transition to sustainable communities through climate mitigation, adaptation planning, and effective climate policies.
Clean Air-Cool Planet has partnered with the Norwegian Embassy to bring a roundtable discussion on the effects of climate change to Portland. This event is a wonderful opportunity to hear perspectives from internationally-recognized experts on how climate change will affect Maine and how our communities may begin planning to mitigate damage. Can we adapt our infrastructure and manmade environments to withstand the predicted changes? The speakers want to hear the local perspective from our business, government and civic leaders an engage in a discussion about actions for the future.
His Excellency Wegger Chr. Strommen, Ambassador of Norway to the United States
