SUMMARY:Crisis and Opportunity: The Oncoming Renewable Energy Revolution
DESCRIPTION:The Osher Lifelong Learning Institute at the University of Oregon (OLLI-UO) is pleased to announce a timely virtual lecture with Dr. John Perona\, PhD\, LLM\, Professor of Environmental Biochemistry\, Portland State University and Adjunct Professor of Biochemistry & Molecular Biology at Oregon Health & Science University. Please email osher@uoregon.edu to receive the Zoom meeting link. \nDr. John Perona examines new work by climate scientists that suggests that we are on track to avoid the worst-case climate change scenarios. As tragic as it has been\, the coronavirus pandemic has clearly shown how greenhouse gas emissions depend on lifestyle. The economic recovery from the pandemic now offers huge opportunities for boosting investments in decarbonization\, effectively resetting the entire energy economy. \nWe look at the present state of the climate and examine the major U.S. initiatives plotting roadmaps for the renewable energy transition over the next three decades. Citizens can play a key role in advocating and supporting aggressive policies for deep decarbonization. Join us this Thursday to learn more.

SUMMARY:InFARMation: Equitable Food Access - How to Contribute to Oregon’s Food Sovereignty Network
DESCRIPTION:Now that you’ve gathered a few ideas from listening to the experience and needs of BIPOC Farmers\, where do you fit in? What can you do that’s tangible\, meaningful\, and immediate beyond the basics of communicating with your representatives and singing a petition? FoFF will explore practical examples of financially sustainable ways to make locally farmed food more accessible in our community this season and next. Learn from the farmers and organizations on the ground what actionable steps you can take to further build capacity to achieve a more Equitable Food Economy. Together we can work towards strengthening and broadening the solidarity economy and rework our social structures from the ground up. \n*All are welcome to this session of Small Farms School. \nSpeakers: Michelle Week\, Good Rain Farm; Malcom Hoover\, Black Futures Farm; and Spring Alaska Olson\, Sakari Botanicals
