Mattapoisett Free Public Library hosts a fourth discussion of Regeneration: Ending the Climate Crisis in One Generation by Paul Hawken.
Coastal flooding, severe storms, decreased food production and global droughts are among the many recent and worsening effects of climate change. Many residents are already feeling the impacts in Mattapoisett, and there will be greater impacts yet to come unless action is taken now. Join us for a discussion of Paul Hawken’s latest call to action, Regeneration: Ending the Climate Crisis in One Generation, and lend your voice to the discussion about how our community can get to “net zero.” We will meet at the library, 7 Barstow Street, and via Zoom on Saturday, March 5 at 11am to discuss the sections on Energy and The City. Participants will also contribute to a list of actions for Mattapoisett citizens to take in living a more sustainable lifestyle and help reverse the effects of climate change.
Copies of Hawken’s book are available to check out from the library, thanks to grant funding from the Richard and Ann J. Prouty Foundation, Bank of America, N.A., Co-Trustee. To request a copy, email Jennifer Jones at jjones@sailsinc.org.
