State and Local Climate Progress: Where Do We Go From Here?

Massachusetts and Cambridge both have plans to dramatically reduce greenhouse gas emissions - with a goal of 50% reduction (from a 1990 baseline) for 2030 and net zero emissions by 2050. Both the state and city have had significant accomplishments, but there have also been challenges.

Come hear about our climate goals – where are we, where are we going, where is there some exciting momentum, where are there roadblocks, and how can we all move forward together?

Miriam Wasser, WBUR Senior Reporter for Climate and Environment, will lead the panel discussion. Our panelists will be:

  • Katherine Antos, Undersecretary of Decarbonization Resilience, Mass. Executive Office of Energy and Environment

  • Julie Wormser, City of Cambridge Chief Climate Officer; and

  • Vickash Mohanka, Chapter Director at the Mass. Sierra Club.

Attendance via Zoom will also be available for those who prefer to join us remotely.

Cosponsored by Massachusetts Sierra Club, Cambridge Mothers Out Front; and 350 MA-Cambridge/Somerville; Creation Justice Group of Old Cambridge Baptist Church; Elders Climate Action - Mass.; First Church in Cambridge, Congregational UCC.
