Join Anya Schoolman of the Community Power Network and John Farrell of the Institute for Local Self-Reliance who will lead a discussion on how states and communities can push past Trump’s dirty energy agenda, drive down energy cost and boost renewable energy growth.
Last month, Trump announced his intent to withdraw the U.S. from the Paris Climate Accords, provoking a groundswell of commitments for local action on climate change.
But what can cities actually do in the absence of federal support?
A lot.
Our presenters will lead a discussion on how to promote local renewable energy projects and policies and provide inspiring case studies from across the country of communities taking control of their energy future and tackling climate change at the local level.

So, what have we got? A global economy staggering amongst geopolitical tension, a bubble to beat all bubbles, and the twin shocks of a (potentially permanent) oil price crash and the EV subsidies ending — and all with the backdrop of worsening climate change driving up inflation and inflicting constant disasters.

Electricity is our energy future, but the details of that future are still sketchy. Right now, the picture is being drawn by billionaire investors, but it looks dark and dystopian. Surely more imaginative artists could do better.
