SUMMARY:Sierra Club Maine - Community Conversation: Hans Neu; Disowned Prophet of "Mega-Dams = Eco-Disaster
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Roger Wheeler\, President of Friends of Sebago Lake (Maine). Over 50 years ago\, Hans Neu\, a leading Canadian government oceanographer warned that the continued building of large hydropower projects on subarctic and Arctic rivers in Canada and Russia could warm the climate\, alter ocean currents with global implications\, and bring grave harm to the fisheries of the Northwest Atlantic. Present available climate data supports the science behind his warnings. In this webinar we will resurrect the buried warnings of the scientist who was ahead of his time\, but right on time!

SUMMARY:MAINECAN Session at the 2025 Maine Sustainability & Water Conference
DESCRIPTION:This session will bring together Maine communities (municipal & tribal government officials\, local non-profit organizations\, citizen groups) implementing or interested in implementing climate and energy solutions and the groups supporting these efforts: Service Providers and Regional Coordinators from the Maine Community Resilience Partnership; Maine-based non-profit organizations; and other entities supporting community-driven climate and energy action. It will be an all-day “track” with morning and afternoon sessions and related poster presentations. This will be our second Maine community-led Energy and Climate Action Network (MAINECAN) event; this initiative has been building over recent years and is a collaboration between community groups and the entities that support them. Each session will focus on a different theme: outreach/engagement best practices (community leaders with community members; supportive partners with communities); specific projects and lessons learned (e.g.\, climate action planning processes\, community-driven solar cooperatives\, residential weatherization\, etc.); ongoing and planned research into opportunities and barriers for energy transitions; and resources for communities to build capacity and keep the momentum going. A targeted focus will be on people and communities considered underserved\, disadvantaged\, or “high” on Maine’s Social Vulnerability Index. Ideally\, each session will have some combination of panel presentations and roundtable discussions.
