RE: Baykeeper update on the Maine Climate Council

[Ivy Frignoca]

Dear Fellow Ocean Lovers,

 

Please see the below for a link to a half hour virtual discussion this Thursday, from 1-1:30. I will provide a 15 minute overview of the Maine Climate Council, with a focus on the Coastal and Marine Working Group (I am a member of this group as are other MOCA participants) and its draft strategies. The strategies are the actions we will recommend to the Climate Council for inclusion in its Action Plan. Right now, all working groups are seeking public feedback on their  draft strategies. If you are interested in learning what the recommended strategies are for the coastal and marine working group and a chance to provide feedback and ask questions, please join me this Thursday. Cassaundra Rose from the Governor’s Office of Policy, Innovation, and the Future (GOPIF) will also be available to answer questions.

 

I hope some of you will join. Registration is capped at 100, so please sign up soon if you are interested.

 

In health,  

 

Ivy

As you may know, I was appointed to the Coastal and Marine Working Group in September 2019. The working group has drafted recommendations for protecting our coastal waters from the impacts of climate change. We are refining and prioritizing these recommendations before presenting them to the Climate Council in June. We would love to share them with you in this upcoming presentation and get your feedback.
