SUMMARY:Sierra Club Book Club: Cadillac Desert
DESCRIPTION:From the Sierra Club –\nThis book club meeting is being set two months in advance\, due to the book being larger than most books we’ve done. It’s 495 pages of well researched stories of how rivers were dammed and water was supplied to cities situated in some of the most inhospitable places in America. \nAmazon.com describes the books as… \n“The story of the American West is the story of a relentless quest for a precious resource: water. It is a tale of rivers diverted and dammed\, of political corruption and intrigue\, of billion-dollar battles over water rights\, of ecological and economic disaster. In his landmark book\, Cadillac Desert\, Marc Reisner writes of the earliest settlers\, lured by the promise of paradise\, and of the ruthless tactics employed by Los Angeles politicians and business interests to ensure the city’s growth…..” \nThere was a four part documentary series made based on this book. It can currently be viewed on youtube.com. \nToo heavy for you? The next book after this is by one of my favorite authors\, Michael Pollan\, author of Omnivore’s Dilemma and a few of his fascinating books have been turned into documentaries as well. April’s book will be “Second Nature” by Michael Pollan. The New York Times reviewed it by saying: “[It’s a] delicious a meditation on one man’s relationships with the Earth as any you are likely to come upon” \nThe book club will be meeting at the picnic tables called the “Rock Garden\,” uphill from Zilker Theater at Zilker Park.

SUMMARY:A Water Plan For The Next 100 Years - Public Workshop #5
DESCRIPTION:From Austin Water –\nDawson Elementary – School Cafeteria\n3001 S 1st St.\, Austin\, TX \nParking: Available in front\, sides and the street \nAustin Water will host its next public workshop to discuss Water Forward\, Austin’s Integrated Water Resource Plan. Staff and consultants will be on hand to discuss draft plan recommendations. We would like to gather your input as we move closer to finalizing the plan. For more information visit austintexas.gov/waterforward \nThis will be a kid-friendly event. \nMore about Water Forward \nWhy do we need a plan?\nCurrently all of our drinking water comes from one source – the Highland Lakes\, which are fed by the Colorado River. During our last drought\, the lakes dipped to dangerously low levels and according to studies\, climate change will likely only lead to more prolonged droughts. \nSo far\, our community has already taken conservation very seriously. As Austin Water reports\, water use today is about the same as it was in the late 1990s\, despite the fact that Austin is now home to about 300\,000 more people. With the Water Forward plan\, Austin Water hopes to continue this culture of conservation into the future\, while looking for new and innovative water supply sources and conservation measures. More info>>

SUMMARY:Fix-It Clinic

Bring these items and more to the Fix-It Clinic where volunteer coaches with repair know-how will be available to teach you how to fix your item. \nFix-It Clinics are all about do-it-together hands-on disassembly\, troubleshooting and repair knowledge. Fix-It Clinic attendees are expected to be active participants in trying to fix their items with guidance from our coaches. Attendees should plan to stay with their items. Dropping off of items for repair will not be permitted. \nAt this Fix-It Clinic\, you can learn how to fix almost anything! Including: \n\nClothing\nJewelry\nAccessories\nToys\nSmall Appliances\nElectronics\n\nAll ages are welcome\, but children under the age of 13 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian. \nChoose your ticket based on the item(s) you plan to bring and when you’ll arrive. If the ticket you are looking for is sold out\, though we can’t guarantee availability of our coaches\, you are welcome to come to the clinic with your item and we will do our best to accommodate you. You can RSVP here. \nIn order to ensure an effective\, fair\, and fun event\, attendees have a limit of two items for repair per visit. If time permits and if there are Fixit Coaches available to assist in the repair\, attendees can then work to repair additional items.

SUMMARY:Green for a Reason with Catherine O’Toole
DESCRIPTION:From the First Unitarian Universalist Church of Austin –\nAfter a very serious cancer diagnosis\, Catherine investigated who got cancer and why. It was during that research she came across the toxic chemicals that are in the everyday products used to build\, furnish and decorate our homes. Catherine’s mission is to educate the public on how home furnishings and building products contribute to serious health issues such as cancer\, infertility\, and asthma (to name a few). Along with bringing awareness of the toxic chemicals in products\, Catherine will present easy tips and alternative options to create a healthier home. \nCatherine hails from Ireland and before starting Green For A Reason\, she had a 10-year career in the fashion industry in New York City. She is a believer in\, “do what you love\, and everything else will fall into place.” In her 30s\, Catherine left corporate America and backpacked around the world by herself for three years. While traveling she met a Texas “Prince Charming.”

SUMMARY:Solar Austin Happy Hour: Austin Local Solar Update
DESCRIPTION:From Solar Austin –\nThis month we have a special solar-powered sponsor: Texas Beer Company! The first 33 ticketed happy hour attendees will get a free Texas Beer Company Pecos Amber beer. \nWhat is Austin Energy doing locally when it comes to solar? Our city-owned utility has existing goals to reach 110 MW of local solar by 2020 and 200 MW by 2025. Austin Energy has several programs to meet these goals. Recently\, Austin Energy made exciting announcements\, including the completion of the new 2.5 MW La Loma community solar project\, a new low-income solar program powered by La Loma\, and the pilot for solar available to multifamily dwellings and affordable housing\, called Shared Solar. Significant changes are also being made to the residential solar incentive program. \nWith the completion of La Loma\, Austin Energy has expanded its community solar program to 400 more residential customers. Although there is only room left on the waitlist at the regular rate\, the half set aside for the Customer Assistance Program (CAP) participants (low-income customers) is still open. CAP customers can now reduce their bill by signing up for the community solar program. (Sign up here:https://austinenergy.com/ae/green-power/solar-solutions/for-your-home/community-solar) Shared Solar will allow residents in a multifamily dwelling to receive a prorated portion of the value of solar credit from a single installation. \nSolar Austin is excited to announce Danielle Murray\, Austin Energy’s Solar Program Manager\, as our March Happy Hour speaker! She will provide an update on all things local solar at Austin Energy: on the La Loma Community Solar project\, the low-income solar program\, Shared Solar\, the upcoming changes to the residential solar incentive program\, and progress toward Austin’s local solar and other renewable energy goals. \nDanielle Murray is Austin Energy’s Manager of Solar Energy Services\, overseeing the utility’s renewable energy offerings and local solar programs. These include the wind-based GreenChoice program\, Community Solar program\, residential and commercial solar incentive programs\, solar inspections\, and the Value of Solar rates. Previously\, Danielle was the Renewable Program Manager for the City and County of San Francisco\, where she led efforts to develop the local solar market\, reduce soft costs\, and implement innovative financing mechanisms; coordinated wind\, wave\, and district energy research and development; and served as chair of the Mayor’s Renewable Energy Task Force. Prior to that\, she worked for the City of Toronto’s Energy Office\, where she designed and implemented the Toronto Neighborhoods Initiative which provided grants and low-interest loans to homeowners to install solar water heating systems and other energy efficiency improvements. \nWe hope you will join us Tuesday\, March 27th for this update on Austin Energy’s solar programs. There’s lots of change happening right now\, and this will be a great chance to ask your questions.
