Community Empowerment: In the Face of a Changing Climate
On October 24, RCAA sponsored and Streamline hosted a free Community Workshop for our communities' knowledge and understanding regarding the potential impacts of a changing climate on the North Coast. Discussions explored how low impact 'green' living can help reduce energy and water use, waste and green house gas emissions (GHGs) through a series of presentations for local land/home owners and renters.

Looking at the volume of intentional environmental degradation, as well as that done in ignorance, it is clear that children are the hope for our future. Educating the next generation about the value, beauty, and function of our environment will create a generation that genuinely cares about the environment.
