We will be hosting a viewing party for the conclusion of Climate Reality.com's "24 Hours of Reality" on Thursday Sept 15th at 7pm sharp.  The program will begin with a 50 minute live webstream presentation about how climate change is effecting global weather patterns around the world. A community discussion will follow.

Montclair has been designated as a Climate Showcase Community by the U.S. EPA, and the "It's In Our Power" Campaign is helping the entire town to reduce our energy use and lower our greenhouse gas emissions. At the Climate Reality event we will have information about simple steps residents can take and financial incentives that are now available to help them save money, make their home more comfortable, save energy, and shrink their carbon footprint - just in time for the winter heating season!

Montclair's Environmental Coordinator, Gray Russell and Climate Reality presenters Greg and Connie Mattison will be on hand to answer questions.  The couple are Montclair residents who also produce the TV series "Green By Design" and "Newlygreens" that have aired on TV34 for several years.

For 24 hours starting on Sept 14th and leading up to the Firehouse event Sept 15th, each hour, in every time zone around the globe,  people living with the reality of climate change will connect the dots between recent extreme weather events - including floods, droughts and storms - and the man-made pollution that is changing our climate, via presentations carried live on http://www.ClimateReality.com. It will offer a round-the-clock, round-the-globe snapshot of the climate crisis in real time.

 

Hope to see you there.
