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:Mitchell Center - Talk – Reconciling with resilience: How Maine can bounce back from floods
DESCRIPTION:Last winter’s devastating storms revealed just how vulnerable Maine communities are to flooding\, whether they’re behind seawalls along the coast or nestled on rivers in the state’s mountainous interior. In the aftermath of that flooding\, Maine Monitor reporter Emmett Gartner traveled across the state to report on how effectively communities weathered the storms\, speaking with local officials about their plans to fortify their towns against the rising seas and more frequent\, intensifying storms brought on by climate change. Join Emmett at the University of Maine’s Senator George J. Mitchell Center for Sustainability Solutions on April 21 at 3PM as he discusses his reporting on the challenges Maine faces in building resilience to flooding and what solutions exist at the state and local levels to prepare Maine for what’s to come.

SUMMARY:Mitchell Center - Talk – Managing for sustainability and climate resilience: The future of agroecological wild blueberry management in Maine and maritime Canada
DESCRIPTION:Wild blueberry production in Maine and maritime Canada is an ecologically\, economically\, and culturally important industry and land use. Agroecology is a scientific discipline that examines agriculture within both ecological and social contexts\, and can be used to better understand the past\, present\, and potential future of wild blueberry agriculture in our region. In this talk\, we present two recent agroecological investigations of wild blueberries: First\, Brogan Tooley\, senior manager of agroecology at Wyman’s\, will share on-farm challenges and ongoing research efforts to identify management techniques that bolster crop resilience and mitigate crop stress in today’s climate. Next\, Dr. Rachel Schattman of the University of Maine Agroecology Lab will present on an ongoing study to investigate the effects of climate change\, specifically changing temperature and precipitation regimes\, on wild blueberries. We invite audience participation in the second half of the presentation as we probe the most pressing questions related to Northeast wild blueberry production in a changing climate.

SUMMARY:Clean Energy Group - Webinar: Energy Resilience for Medically Vulnerable Multifamily Affordable Housing Residents: A Technoeconomic Analysis for Connecticut
DESCRIPTION:Power outages can quickly turn into a health crisis for the millions of Americans that rely on electricity for home medical devices\, including life-support equipment and technologies for independent living. A new report\, Optimizing Energy Resilience to Support Medically Vulnerable Multifamily Affordable Housing Residents\, assesses the potential for solar+storage to improve health outcomes for medically vulnerable residents. It includes a technoeconomic analysis that explores opportunities to maintain electricity to essential resident services\, both in-unit and in communal spaces\, at three multifamily affordable housing facilities in Connecticut. In this webinar\, project partners will discuss the methodology and results of their technoeconomic analysis\, including key findings and recommendations. Speakers will also discuss applicable incentives available through Connecticut’s Energy Storage Solutions program and Residential Renewable Energy Solutions program.

DESCRIPTION:A FIERCE GREEN FIRE: The Battle For a Living Planet is the first big-picture exploration of the environmental movement – grassroots and global activism spanning fifty years from conservation to climate change. From halting dams in the Grand Canyon to battling 20\,000 tons of toxic waste at Love Canal; from Greenpeace saving the whales to Chico Mendes and the rubbertappers saving the Amazon; from climate change to the promise of transforming our civilization… the film tells vivid stories about people fighting – and succeeding – against enormous odds.

SUMMARY:Mitchell Center - Talk – Closing the Loop: Opportunities for Industrial Circular Economy Exchanges in Maine
DESCRIPTION:In this talk\, we’ll explore the potential of industrial symbiosis and materials exchanges as solutions for reducing waste in Maine— a key policy priority for climate action and sustainable resource use. By facilitating the exchange of waste\, Industrial Symbiosis and Materials Exchanges can cut disposal costs\, minimize pollution\, and unlock new economic opportunities. This presentation will examine how Maine can create a collaborative network to foster these circular economy solutions and support the state’s climate goals.

SUMMARY:Mitchell Center - Talk – Scallop Aquaculture in the Gulf of Maine: Challenges\, Opportunities\, and Lessons Learned
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Damian C. Brady is a Professor of Oceanography based at the Darling Marine Center. His research interests\, while broad\, focus on how models can inform better decision-making in marine ecosystems to reflect the values of the coastal communities that rely on them. The decision-making contexts have included aquaculture\, offshore wind\, marine carbon dioxide removal\, the American lobster fishery\, sea-run fish\, and coastal water quality. The Gulf of Maine is an important economic driver for the region with important fisheries and aquaculture operations; however\, dynamic new ocean industries are emerging\, such as recirculating aquaculture systems\, floating offshore wind\, and marine carbon dioxide removal. Many of these new and emerging technologies purport to address our pressing climate change induced challenges. To determine whether these emerging technologies can address these challenges\, our team develops\, calibrates\, and validates tools\, such as techno-economic analyses\, marine ecosystem models\, remote sensing\, and oceanographic buoys\, to collect objective\, science-based information and importantly\, communicate these results to coastal communities.
