April General Meeting A Renewable Energy Future for NJ

April 7, 2018 @ 1:00 pm - 3:00 pm

Please join us on Saturday April 7th, 1-3 pm, for discussion + an “action hour” with special partners Food & Water Watch and ReThink Energy NJ. The topic? NJ’s energy future and pipeline battles.
-How can we get NJ back on the path toward reduced greenhouse gas emissions and renewable, clean energy?
-How can NJ build its energy future WITHOUT building more pipelines?
-What can local residents do to stop the construction of the PennEast pipeline, the Williams-Transco pipeline, and the Franklin gas compressor station?
-How can we build an energy future that is not only environmentally friendly, but also environmentally just?
Ed Potosnak (League of Conservation Voters), Patty Cronheim (ReThink Energy NJ), and Junior Romero (Food & Water Watch) will help us answer these questions.
Then, attendees will have the opportunity to work on various action items, such as supporting relevant bills in the state legislature. We’ll provide the materials and information, you provide your constituent voice! (*if you’d prefer to contact your representatives by phone or email, be sure to bring a cell phone or other device that can connect to wi-fi).
Location: Presbyterian Church of Lawrenceville, 2688 Main Street (Route 206), Lawrenceville, NJ, 08648)
