COCKTAILS + CLIMATE  

Wednesday, March 13, 6:30-7:30pm

10 Woodland Road

Periodically, Carbon Neutral Kent Woodlands will host an event covering a critical climate-related topic that will leave you optimistic, empowered, and connected to our community! Our first soiree is March 13th from 6:30-7:30 PM with special guest Ellie Cohen, CEO of The Climate Center. As Californians, we can lead the nation in removing gas consumption from our daily lives. Ellie will help you understand how to implement some of California’s newest policies right in your household. “As goes California, so goes the world” when converting ideas into action for a climate-safe future!

So, emerge from the rain, walk to Julie and Pete Johnson’s house at 10 Woodland Road, and hear about real change in California! Bar opens at 6:30. For registration information, contact jjohnson@kwpoa.com.

GREEN HOME TOURS
