InVEST - DIVEST
My Carbon Footprint is My Money
Emerging market electrification growth is leapfrogging over developed markets, and my home carbon release has plunged 90%. Let’s look at diminishing fossil fire energy, the growth of energy electron efficiencies, and the economics of change. An energy electron revolution is reshaping our world, and our actions will speed solutions: What you buy. How you buy. Where you invest. Where you divest.
Join us this month at PECA Presents to hear about money, choices, investments, and impacts from Eric Jorgensen, an environmental educator retired from UC Davis Cooperative Extension. Eric’s volunteer retirement activities have included Bear Yuba Land Trust lands monitoring, Sierra Streams Institute water quality monitoring, home advisor for the Fire Safe Council, and education and policy advocacy with Nevada County Climate Action Now.

Climate Movie Night

February 19, 6:30pm
This Changes Everything
Directed by Avi Lewis and inspired by Naomi Klein’s bestseller, This Changes Everything, presents seven powerful portraits of communities on the front lines, from Montana’s Powder River Basin to the Alberta Tar Sands, from the coast of South India to Beijing and beyond.
Interwoven with these stories of struggle is Klein’s narration, connecting the carbon in the air with the economic system that put it there. Throughout the film, Klein builds to her most controversial and exciting idea: that we can seize the existential crisis of climate change to transform our failed economic system into something radically better.
Will this film change everything? Absolutely not. But you could, by answering its call to action. Join us for this inspiring movie.
