Conversation Starter
Forget About Fossil Fuels
The Truro Climate Action Committee and the Truro Public Library are hosting a series of monthly events on reducing household dependence on fossil fuels. The first, “Electrifying Your Home,” will feature strategies presented by Cape Light Compact, an energy services organization for Cape Cod and Martha’s Vineyard. It will be held at the library on Saturday, Jan. 28 at 2 p.m.
“For many people this is an incredibly sad and difficult moment in our history,” said climate action committee member Rebecca Bruyn, who organized the series with committee member Lili Flanders and volunteer Georgia Neill, along with library staff. She hopes the series will help people “take action to prevent further climate change.”
Child care will be provided at the event, said Truro Public Library Director Tricia Ford.
Residents of all Outer Cape towns are welcome to attend, Bruyn said, and are encouraged to register on the library’s website. —Sophie Mann-Shafir
