Each session begins with one of the six short videos in “Climate Solutions 101,” narrated by Jonathan Foley, Project Drawdown’s executive director. The video will be followed by discussion in breakout rooms, then a talk by a local climate expert or activist who will finish by answering participants’ questions.

We encourage you to attend all six sessions, but you can choose to attend the units with speakers who interest you the most.


The speaker at the first session, Feb 20, is Mark Sandeen. Mark is a Lexington Select Board member, and former chair of the Sustainable Lexington Committee which won Massachusetts’ Leading by Example award.

Mark is a co-founder of MassSolar, a non-profit organization working to ensure fair and equitable access to solar power for everyone in the Commonwealth.
