The Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative (RGGI) is driving clean energy innovation in the Northeast while enabling states to achieve their climate goals cost effectively. Join E2Tech for Wake Up! A Convenient Forum on Climate Change, today at 4 pm at the Cloudport co-working space (63 Federal St, Portland).

Speakers include Kathleen Meil, Marketing Manager at Evergreen Home Performance, and Peter Shattuck, Director of the Acadia Center’s Clean Energy Initiative. Meil and Shattuck will explore RGGI’s market-based system, which reduces carbon pollution from power plants and invests its revenues for energy efficiency and renewable energy projects, including more than $50 million in Maine programs alone. These dollars leverage tens of millions more to help residents and businesses save money through weatherization and other improvements to their homes, buildings, and factories.

The forum will be immediately followed by a holiday reception. Both are open to the public, but tickets are required. e2tech.org/event-2386813
