OUR ENVIRONMENT OUR GENERAL ASSEMBLY

A Discussion with Guilford County Delegation Members

Sunday, January 18, 2015

Kathleen Clay Edwards Family Branch Library

2:00 – 4:00 pm

Environmental Stewardship Greensboro (ESG) is hosting a discussion with members of Guilford County’s delegation to the NC General Assembly to explore key environmental issues coming before the legislature in the 2015 session.

People of faith who care deeply about the Earth will want to keep in touch with our legislators on many issues this year.  What do members of our delegation expect to be the key environmental topics in 2015?    Will renewable energy standards be terminated or expanded? Will coal ash ponds need more protection?  Will solar energy incentives continue? Will fracking rules provide enough protection for communities and groundwater?

Please join in this discussion to learn our delegation’s perspectives and to inform our delegation about our stewardship passions on January 18.  Bring your friends and others in your faith community to make it a lively, productive discussion.  Ours is a fragile environment, and sustaining our air, land and water resources is a sacred trust that we share with our General Assembly members.
