SUMMARY:Waste Less\, Celebrate More Holiday Webinar
DESCRIPTION:This holiday season\, want to waste less and celebrate more? Waste from holiday meals\, gift giving and packaging can trash our holiday spirit and harm the environment. We throw away at least 25% more trash during the period between Thanksgiving and New Year’s Day than any other time of year. \nAt “Waste less\, celebrate more” you’ll hear tips on how to reduce your waste during the holidays with our panel of experts from PIRG and Environment America. We’ll discuss zero waste gift ideas like experiences\, pre-loved gifts\, repaired gifts (did you know Pikes Peak Library District at Library21C offers a Repair Cafe to assist you?) and more. \nReducing what we consume helps us reduce manufacturing\, transportation\, and disposal pollution that impacts our climate and our environment – plus we can focus instead on what really matters. \nFor example\, much of our clothing (polyester\, nylon etc) and other purchases contain plastic. Plastics require extracting fossil fuels\, a main ingredient\, and a highly energy intensive conversion into plastics. And of course plastics and improper disposal are causing pollution to our air\, land\, water\, and even our bodies. \nWhat if during the holidays we focused less on things and more on coming together to help others\, giving to good causes as a gift\, and planning experiences that bring us together and will last a lifetime? \nThis topic also supplements the work our friends at Indivisible Colorado Springs are doing on trash and recycling.  \nSo register now using the link below and join us to learn more as part of this “Beyond Plastic” series webinar from PIRG and Environment America.

SUMMARY:Webinar: Distributed Energy (Rooftop Solar\, Batteries\, Net Metering\, Utilities)
DESCRIPTION:Colorado Renewable Energy Society Webinar \nThe grid is big and made up of lots of big things—powerplants\, transmission lines\, substations\, and utilities. For nearly 35 years\, Karl R. Rábago\, who has always been a bit contrarian\, has been focused on the small end of this big system. And he has found ways to work on distributed energy resources (DERs) in a wide range of professional capacities—as a commissioner\, a federal R&D manager\, an NGO advocate\, a utility executive\, and as an expert witness in scores of utility regulatory proceedings.  \nAlong the way\, he has written widely on the subject of DERs in the context of utility rates\, net metering\, utility planning\, and benefit-cost analysis. Karl will share his insights and experience on how to get DER value right\, answer your questions\, and point you to useful resources\, too.
