SUMMARY:Kids Combat Food Waste
DESCRIPTION:The theme for summer reading at the Ashland Public Library is Read Renew Repeat. In teaming up with the Ashland Library\, Samantha Riley\, Sustainability Manager\, and Becca Solomon\, Conservation Agent\, have helped coordinate activities. \nDid you know that about ⅓ of food produced for us to eat is lost or wasted globally? Sam from the Sustainability Department will present this hands-on workshop  where kids will explore practical ways to combat food waste at home. Then kids will step outside to “plant” common food scraps that will regrow into yummy foods! For kids entering Kindergarten through 6th grade and their families. Registration required.

SUMMARY:Zero Carbon\, Zero Bills Seminar
DESCRIPTION:If you are curious about: \n\nHow to cut your home’s carbon emissions and bills by at least 50% (with MA and IRA subsidies)\n\nand/or \n\nWhy electric vehicles are now cheaper to buy\, cheaper to maintain and cheaper to run than gas-powered cars\n\nRegister for David Green’s free “Zero Carbon\, Zero Bills” webinar on July 9th at 7PM (Eastern time). \nSherborn resident David Green has cut his own home’s carbon emissions and bills to zero (making a 15% return on investment) and loves driving his Tesla Model S and Ford F150 Lightning for far less than their gas-powered equivalents\, and without range anxiety. The F150 has also powered my house for 24 hours during a grid outage.  He has authored two books on cutting carbon emissions (endorsed by both Bill McKibben and Paul Hawken) and has created this webinar that thousands of people have seen seen. David is an energy geek with a BA in physics from Oxford University and a finance nerd with an MBA from Harvard Business School. David has retired from a career in biotechnology (he founded two companies\, was CEO of both and took both public on NASDAQ) and does not work for any installer or manufacturer of energy products – his advice is completely independent. \nThe presentation part of the webinar lasts about 45 minutes and then David will stay on the call until the last person’s question gets answered.
