Book Group Discussion - "The Heat Will Kill You First" by Jeff Goodell
2023-10-02 19:00 - 20:00 (America/New_York) | On Zoom
Our Book Group Discussion will feature Jeff Goodell’s recent book, “The Heat Will Kill You First: Life and Death on a Scorched Planet.”
From the Hachette Book Group website, “The Heat Will Kill You First is about the extreme ways in which our planet is already changing. It is about why spring is coming a few weeks earlier and fall is coming a few weeks later and the impact that will have on everything from our food supply to disease outbreaks. It is about what will happen to our lives and our communities when typical summer days in Chicago or Boston go from 90° F to 110°F. A heatwave, Goodell explains, is a predatory event— one that culls out the most vulnerable people. But that is changing. As heatwaves become more intense and more common, they will become more democratic…As an award-winning journalist who has been at the forefront of environmental journalism for decades, Goodell’s new book may be his most provocative yet, explaining how extreme heat will dramatically change the world as we know it. Masterfully reported, mixing the latest scientific insight with on-the-ground storytelling, Jeff Goodell tackles the big questions and uncovers how extreme heat is a force beyond anything we have reckoned with before.”
Francesca Rheannon interviewed Jeff Goodell earlier this year for her podcast, Writer’s Voice.

September Chapter Meeting - Regenerative Economics for a Safe and Prosperous Future
2023-09-21 19:00 - 20:30 | On Zoom
Effectively dealing with the climate crisis and other environmental crises will require us to rethink our fundamental assumptions about how humans relate to each other and the natural world, via our participation in the global economy. In this presentation, we will explore how our current “extractive” approach to generating products and services got us into this mess, and how we can get out of it by moving to a more “regenerative” economic model. Here in upstate New York, we are well positioned to lead this transition, beginning with some simple changes in how climate advocates talk about the journey ahead.

About Our Presenter
Abigail McHugh-Grifa was a founding member of the Climate Solutions Accelerator of the Genesee-Finger Lakes Region and New York State’s first Mothers Out Front chapter. Her early climate advocacy work also included co-coordinating Rochester’s Citizens’ Climate Lobby chapter. She currently serves as the Accelerator’s Executive Director and is a member of New York State’s Climate Justice Working Group. Though she holds a Ph.D. in Music Education from the Eastman School of Music, she gave up her career in music to dedicate herself to climate advocacy work out of concern for her two young sons, whose futures depend on our collective efforts to maintain stable global temperatures.

This is a joint meeting with WNY Chapter

Book Group Series- “Regeneration” by Paul Hawken, Session #2
2023-08-28 19:00 - 20:00 | On Zoom
This is the second part of the discussion of Paul Hawken’s “Regeneration: Ending the climate crisis in one generation”. The first part (Monday July 31) covers the beginning to page 147 [through People chapter]. The second part covers Page 148 [The City chapter] to the End.

Note from Goodreads:
A radically new understanding of and practical approach to climate change by noted environmentalist Paul Hawken, creator of the New York Times bestseller Drawdown
The dangers of climate change and a warming world have been in the public eye for fifty years. For three decades, scientists and the United Nations have urged us to address future existential threats, an effort that culminated in the 2015 Paris Agreement. Although 188 countries made commitments to prevent global warming from exceeding 2 degrees centigrade, as of 2021, 182 failed, and the G7 countries did not even come close. The result so far: 98 percent of the world is disengaged from the greatest danger civilization has ever faced. Instead, extreme weather is increasing, climate migration is disrupting borders and politics in the EU and US, while fossil fuel energy companies dig in their heals to prevent the advent of renewable energy. Journalistic lingo that says we should combat climate change, but by using war metaphors, climate became a story of one more conflict, a framing that has left out humanity.

In Regeneration Paul Hawken has flipped the narrative, bringing people back into the conversation by demonstrating that addressing current human needs rather than future threats is the only path to solving the climate crisis. Regeneration is the first book to define, delineate, and set standards for regeneration, offering a comprehensive explanation of its meaning and application Why regeneration? Because every single economic sector in the world extracts life from the planet and by doing so harms it. The way to reverse a heating planet and human indifference is to reverse planetary degeneration.

Using regeneration as a foundation for understanding and action includes everyone and shows how people the world over can benefit by creating rather than reacting. Regeneration contains an extraordinary array of initiatives that include but go well beyond solar, electric vehicles, and tree planting to include such solutions as marine protected areas, bioregions, azolla fern, food localization, regenerative agriculture, forest farms, and the #1 solution for the world: electrifying everything.

Paul Hawken and the non-profit Regeneration are launching a series of initiatives to accompany the book that will include a streaming video series, curriculum, podcasts, teaching videos, and climate action software. Regeneration is the inspiring and needed guide to inform the burgeoning climate movement.

July Chapter Meeting - Transforming Materials Management through Community ReUse: Simple Solutions for a Complex World
2023-07-20 19:00 - 20:30 | On Zoom
Finger Lakes ReUse is an award-winning organization celebrating its 15th year serving residents of Tompkins County and beyond. With thousands of material donors and shoppers weekly and retail sales from its two ReUse Centers growing an average of 20% annually for the last 10 years, the business and demand for services is growing, and while the work is labor-intensive, worker engagement is strong and workforce development opportunities abound. With more than 80 living wage employees, 10 apprentices, 10 youth workers and hundreds of volunteers, more than 750,000 items were kept in use in 2022, at an average price of $3.20 per item.
U.S. waste is a major contributor to greenhouse gas emissions, while burning fossil fuels is the primary contributor. Creating a model set of systems to help effectively and comprehensively capture and divert 100% of the potentially reusable, recyclable, compostable and repairable materials and minimizing ongoing production and transport of materials with value is not a small consideration, and will require collaboration and focus. The good news is that this is an effort that appeals across the political spectrum, and conversations in NYS and across the country are actively ongoing to create a more effective, just, and comprehensive materials management system to effectively manage the waste that currently is plaguing our communities and our planet.
Finger Lakes ReUse has received several honors, including the New York State Environmental Excellence Award, the Environmental Champion Award from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Recovery Friendly Employer of the Year from the Alcohol & Drug Council of Tompkins County, Nonprofit of the Year from the Chamber of Commerce, and Ithaca Times Best of Ithaca Awards for each of the last 5 years.
BIO
Diane Cohen is chief executive officer of Finger Lakes ReUse, Inc., a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization founded in 2007 in Ithaca, NY to help Tompkins County transform waste into community value, and has been working professionally in material management since 2001.
Now operating two Community ReUse Centers among other programs, Diane is working collaboratively with numerous multi-sector partners to design a more effective materials management system for reusable and repairable materials to remain circulating in the local economy.
Diane was honored to receive the eChievement Award from eTown Radio in 2017 and the Lifetime Achievement Award from NYSAR3 (New York State Association for Reduction, Reduce & Recycling) in 2021.

June Chapter Meeting: Clean Energy & Equity for Low-Income Homes
2023-06-15 19:00 - 20:30
Clean Energy & Equity for Low-Income Homes

Dr. Gay Nicholson, President, Sustainable Finger Lakes

Thurs. June 15, 7:00-8:30 pm

Sustainable Finger Lakes has run its local carbon offset fund, Finger Lakes Climate Fund, since 2010 with a focus on addressing the twin challenges of climate change and income inequality. Climate Fund grants have been given to 86 households across 12 counties of the region to help pay for insulation, air sealing, and heat pumps. In recent years, they have boosted their impact by winning grants from NYSERDA and Tompkins County to provide substantial subsidies for heat pump installations in the homes of lower-income families. In 2023, they launched two pilot projects to bring heat pumps into two housing sectors that have received the least amount of state and federal clean energy support: mobile homes and low-income rentals in 1-4 unit buildings. This talk will dive into the details of the design and launch of the two pilots.

Since 2004, Gay Nicholson has led Sustainable Finger Lakes (formerly “Sustainable Tompkins”) in designing and implementing an integrated program to advance the creation of a more sustainable regional community. Gay emphasizes a systems approach to working with partners to build the infrastructure and social capacity for more sustainable ways of living and working. Gay participates in a number of local partnerships related to energy and climate, equity as an economic driver, and sustainable agriculture.

April Chapter Meeting: Tompkins County Food System Plan - Roadmap for our Future
2023-04-20 19:00 - 20:30
Presentation by Don Barber, Chair, Tompkins Food Policy Council
Everyone fully participates in our food system every day by the choices we make to feed ourselves and our family. Most of us are unaware there is a strong connection between the climate crisis and our food system. The global food system releases fully one third of the annual greenhouse gas emissions. It doesn’t have to be this way, as there are food choice changes that consumers can make to significantly reduce GHG emissions. There are agricultural practices that apply to gardens up to large farms which will sequester much more carbon in soil. Join us on April 20th to learn about our local food system; its impact on the climate and climate’s impact on agriculture and the role our everyday decisions can have to reduce GHG emissions and support carbon capture.
Don Barber is Chair of the Tompkins Food Policy Council. In the 1980’s he was chair of the Sierra Club Atlantic Chapter’s Finger Lakes Group, then Chair of the Tompkins County Environmental Management Council, then Caroline Town Supervisor for 22 years which was the second municipality in NY to purchase 100% of its municipal energy from renewable sources and build a Town Office building powered by the sun and heated by the earth. He grew up on a family dairy farm and currently farms in Brooktondale which is fully solar powered and uses draft horses for a good share of the field work.
In 2019, he and other members of the Tompkins Food Policy Council lobbied the County Legislature to fund staffing to develop a Food System Plan for Tompkins County; and then secured funding from the Community Foundation of Tompkins County for programming costs. Last summer, they delivered a Food System Plan, from over 2000 voices, which was unanimously accepted by the County Legislature. The FPC is now in the Implementation phase.

April Book Group Meeting
2023-04-17 19:00 - 20:00
We will discuss “In This Together: Connecting with your community to combat the climate crisis,” by Marianne E. Krasny. Prof. Krasny will join us for the discussion.
From the Cornell University Press writeup: In This Together explores how we can harness our social networks to make a real impact fighting the climate crisis. Against notions of the lone environmental crusader, Marianne E. Krasny shows us the power of “network climate action”—the idea that our own ordinary acts can influence and inspire those close to us. Through this spread of climate-conscious practices, our individual actions become collective ones that can eventually effect widespread change.
Weaving examples of everyday climate-forward initiatives in with insights on behavioral and structural change, Krasny demonstrates how we can scale up the impact of our efforts through leveraging our community connections. Whether by inviting family, friends, or colleagues to a plant-rich meal or by becoming activists at climate nonprofits, we can forge the social norms and shared identities that can lead to change. With easy-to-follow dos and don’ts, In This Together shows us a practical and hopeful way forward into our shared future.
Note: The author is providing a discount at Cornell University Press to Book Group participants who would like to purchase the book.

Prof. Marianne Krasny of Cornell University, a member of our Chapter, will speak on how climate activists can influence the 2023-28 Farm Bill. This huge bill—slated to be funded at $648 billion ($160 billion larger than Inflation Reduction Act expenditures)—has multiple opportunities for reducing methane and nitrous oxide from livestock and dairy farms and for promoting eating that is healthy for humans and the planet. Hear about why we will not be able to reach our climate emissions goals without tackling food systems.

Marianne Krasny is a professor in Natural Resources and the Environment at Cornell University where she directs the Civic Ecology Lab. She volunteers for Elders Climate Action, Climate Action Now, and the Finger Lakes Chapter of Climate Reality. She is particularly focused on creating sign-on letters and educating people about food waste, plant-rich diet, and the Farm Bill.

Our June chapter meeting with be a joint event hosted by our chapter and the Western New York chapter.
Speaker: Lisa Taranto, “Thank the Soil for Everything!”
Beneath our feet there is a thin layer of complex and sophisticated activity which never fully stops. Some might call it magical. Trillions of life forms are constantly exchanging information and energy. And this tiny to microscopic life is what supports terrestrial viability. And like all natural systems, it is seriously compromised by human activity. The dynamic relationships between bacteria, fungi, decomposers and the rhizosphere are only recently revealing their stories to us, as they have been quietly working in the dark for eons. We will look at the BIG picture of the consequences our actions have had on global soils, and current understandings of where we are headed, and what can be done to rebuild respect and regeneration of this incredibly fascinating realm.
