Presentation on NH Climate Change Action Plan
Tuesday 9/29/09 7:00 PM Sandown Town Hall

"Here in New Hampshire, we ship in nearly 90% of all energy sources that drive our economy. We use these resources to generate electricity, heat our homes and businesses, and power our vehicles. Due to this reliance on external energy sources, New Hampshire is particularly vulnerable to fluctuations in the global energy markets. Our state is also heavily reliant on our rich natural resources to sustain our economy. These critical forest lands, rivers and lakes, and coastal areas are threatened by the current and future effects of climate change. As a result, there is real and growing concern within New Hampshire regarding the significant detrimental effects that our current pattern of energy use and a changing climate could have on our local economy and on the quality of our lives.

The NH Climate Change Action Plan, submitted to Governor Lynch in March 2009, presents a chance to address both of these vulnerabilities while creating new opportunities to grow the New Hampshire economy. Come hear Chris Skoglund, an Energy and Transportation Analyst with the NH Dept. of Environmental Services provide an overview of this Plan, which represents the thinking and recommendations of one of the largest, most diverse collections of leading New Hampshire citizens in many years."
