SUMMARY:Power Hour | Homegrown Renewables: Community Solar
DESCRIPTION:This year for Earth Month (and beyond)\, we’d love to see our community take action in a multitude of ways to secure a healthy climate future. A super easy and convenient way to take action is to sign up to get your electricity from renewable solar energy that is produced right here in Oregon through Oregon’s Community Solar Program. We’ve put together this event so that you can learn about the program and find out how you can sign up for the program. \nOregon’s Community Solar Program has projects coming online this year for Pacific Power customers! Community solar allows subscribers to benefit from solar without installing panels on their own roof. Individuals\, businesses\, and organizations can subscribe to a central\, off-site project and receive the energy benefits for their portion of the project on their current Pacific Power bill*. \nThis opportunity allows households that have traditionally been underserved by solar energy such as renters and those who live in multifamily residences to invest in clean\, renewable energy without barriers such as not owning your home\, high up-front costs\, or having a shady roof. The added bonus is that you will pay less for the renewable energy than your current electricity rates! Additionally\, income-eligible households can save up to 40% off the cost of their electricity. \nCome learn more about Oregon’s Community Solar Program! You will see where projects are being built in Oregon and how to subscribe! \nRight now\, through Sunday\, May 15th\, Oregon Shines will donate $25 to TEC for each community solar subscription. It’s a win-win for our community! \n*If you are a CEC customer learn more about their programs here. \nMeet our speaker \nCarly Sellers is a Program Manager at Oregon Shines. She manages and develops programs that are designed to connect Oregonians with sustainable energy options while also providing resources and education on the importance of clean energy for a sustainable future. Our mission is to educate individuals\, businesses\, and municipalities on the benefits of Community Solar so that they are empowered to take part in creating a more sustainable future.  \nRegister for the in-person event \nRegister to attend virtually

SUMMARY:Sisters Know Wonder: Wondering How to Rethink Plastic Waste?
DESCRIPTION:Discover actions you can take to reduce reliance on single-use plastics. \nThis is an in-person program. Masks are recommended at all in-person programs. \nDid you know that less than 9% of the plastic ever produced is recycled? Meanwhile\, 75% of all aluminum ever produced is still in use today\, and over 60% of paper and 90% of paperboard gets recycled. There’s a lot we can do to address our plastics problem from learning to recycle right to reducing our reliance on single-use plastics. Udara Abeysekera\, Program Manager of the Rethink Waste Project at the Environmental Center\, will share tips and resources for rethinking our relationship with plastic stuff. This interactive discussion will cover actions we can take in our homes and community to reduce\, reuse\, and recycle plastics. \nContact\nLiz Goodrich | lizg@deschuteslibrary.org | 541-312-1032

SUMMARY:Power Hour | Homegrown Renewables: Woody Biomass
DESCRIPTION:Central Oregon can and should be a leader in the local generation of renewable energy. We have rich resources to explore here in our backyard. As the community embarks on discussions around creating an energy plan for Deschutes County and as the City of Bend explores local generation opportunities to meet renewable energy goals laid out in the Community Climate Action Plan\, now is the time for us to come together and learn about the resources that are available in our community. This series will explore homegrown opportunities to produce renewable energy.  \nWe will kick off this event by learning about Oregon’s new green tariff program and how it could help us meet local renewable energy goals\, then we’ll explore the City of Prineville’s proposed 24 MW woody biomass energy generation project and hear about resources to get biomass projects started and learn about other ways to utilize woody biomass. We have a lot to cover but don’t worry\, we will give you plenty of time for Q&A with our expert panel!  \nThese events are meant to be exploratory and not necessarily answer which sources of energy are the best for each community. Rather\, we want to see communities engage in robust dialogue about what is available so that when it comes to making energy plans\, we all have some foundational knowledge to work from. \nAgenda\n5:00 – 5:30 – In-person event: Doors open\, grab a beer/drink\, find a seat \n5:30-7:00 – Virtual and In-person event: Presentation and panel discussion \n  \nRegister for the in-person event \nRegister to attend virtually \nMeet our Speakers and Panelists\nEric Klann\, City Engineer and Public Works Director\, City of Prineville.

SUMMARY:Sunriver Know Wonder: Wondering How to Rethink Plastic Waste?
DESCRIPTION:Discover actions you can take to reduce reliance on single-use plastics. \nThis is an in-person program. Masks are recommended at all in-person programs. \nDid you know that less than 9% of the plastic ever produced is recycled? Meanwhile\, 75% of all aluminum ever produced is still in use today\, and over 60% of paper and 90% of paperboard gets recycled. There’s a lot we can do to address our plastics problem from learning to recycle right to reducing our reliance on single-use plastics. Udara Abeysekera\, Program Manager of the Rethink Waste Project at the Environmental Center\, will share tips and resources for rethinking our relationship with plastic stuff. This interactive discussion will cover actions we can take in our homes and community to reduce\, reuse\, and recycle plastics. \nContact\nPaige M. Ferro | paigef@deschuteslibrary.org | 541-312-1063

SUMMARY:Whys and Hows of Food Waste Reduction and Composting
DESCRIPTION:Learn why food waste matters\, how to reduce food waste\, strategies for composting\, and pros and cons of various at home compost bins\nAbout this event\nDid you know that wasted food makes up over 25% of waste at Knott Landfill by tonnage – making it the largest category of waste in the landfill? Yet\, in Deschutes County\, 1 in 8 people is food insecure\, meaning they don’t always know where their next meal will come from. \nAnd perhaps most astounding of all\, the average family of four tosses $1600 worth of food every year. We’re better than that. It’s time to rethink food waste\, and we want to help you do it. \nThis free interactive workshop will dig into why food waste matters\, how to reduce food waste in the first place\, and strategies for composting at home or in our community. Workshop will cover pros and cons of different styles of compost bins outside in our Learning Garden. Open to adults and youth\, composting beginners and pros! Attendees will be entered into a drawing for an at home composting system. \nLocated at The Environmental Center’s Learning Garden at 16 NW Kansas Ave. \nRegister Here

SUMMARY:Letting Trees Grow for Wildlife
DESCRIPTION:Hundreds of threatened and endangered wildlife species rely on mature and old-growth forests. The northern spotted owl\, marbled murrelet\, and Coho salmon are some of the most high-profile cases\, but there are many other species that also call these forests home across the country and are imperiled by commercial logging and other development. \nJoin Oregon Wild\, Environment America\, and Portland Audubon to learn more about our climate forests and endangered species that depend on them.
