We are facing job losses, the climate crisis and the out of control, continually rising, cost of living. The earth is heating up – every fall we hear that the past summer was the hottest on record. And the wars, the wars that we have no control over are making all of us vulnerable to volatile and rising energy costs. We can feel helpless with so much chaos surrounding us. But we cannot allow that helplessness to consume us, rather we need to take action now. One part of the solution is to move away rapidly from coal, oil and gas and move towards renewable energy and electrification of home heating. Those two actions can cut our daily living expenses, put people to work and cut the carbon pollution heating up our lives.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoPlainText><span lang=EN-US><a href="https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_Cs2sTZ5VQNKHAV867mglwQ#/registration">https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_Cs2sTZ5VQNKHAV867mglwQ#/registration</a> <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoPlainText><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoPlainText><span lang=EN-US>______________________<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoPlainText><span lang=EN-US>______________________<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoPlainText><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoPlainText><b><span lang=EN-US style='color:#7030A0'>FilmSocial: Finally Got the News<o:p></o:p></span></b></p><p class=MsoPlainText><span lang=EN-US>Wed.
