Upcoming Zoom event to feature development of Kansas climate and energy plan

Submitted by Mary Rankin

Climate change may have contributed to the cold spell last February when the supply of electric power was not sufficient to meet demand. This occurrence prompted many to call for Kansas to develop a climate and energy plan that includes resilience and proper preparation for cold weather.

The Zoom event, Solve Climate by 2030 by Developing a Kansas Climate and Energy Plan, Wednesday, April 7, 6-8 p.m., will feature presentations followed by a panel discussion addressing this issue.

Professionals from Kansas State University are working with the Metropolitan Energy Center in Kansas City and environmental organizations in Kansas such as the Climate + Energy Project to develop the program, one of more than 70 geographically distributed events organized by Bard College and its many partners.

The event is free and open to the public. Visit SolveClimateBy2030.org to register to attend. Contact Larry Erickson at lerick@k-state.edu for further information.
