SUMMARY:EBC: Electricity 101: How New England Generates and Delivers Power – An EBC Energy Resources Webinar
DESCRIPTION:The energy world can seem complicated. From unfamiliar terminology to the complex systems that generate and deliver our electricity\, it’s not always easy to understand how it all fits together. This EBC Energy Resources webinar is designed to make it simple. Speakers will provide an overview of how the New England region gets its power: where electricity comes from\, how demand is managed\, and how the grid is changing to meet future needs. Experts will then walk through the different ways power is produced with short\, engaging presentations and plenty of time for questions. \nThis webinar is perfect for anyone who wants to better understand where our electricity comes from and how it gets to our homes and communities. \nIntended audience: early career professionals\, students\, conservation commission members\, planning board members\, municipal staff and managers\, and anyone interested in better understanding how the New England energy system works. \nGeneral Continuing Education Certificates are awarded by the EBC for this program (1.5 training contact hours).

SUMMARY:ACT: Setting DEI Targets Without Discrimination
DESCRIPTION:When laying out DEI strategies\, most organizations rely on metrics and targets based entirely or primarily on representation (i.e.\, diversity). Aside from the difficulty of selecting meaningful targets\, this is a dangerous practice that can lead to internal backlash. \nThis webinar shows the importance of prioritizing equity and introduces a way of measuring equity that completely avoids the zero-sum game mindset that often leads to internal backlash. \nSpeaker Paolo Gaudiano \nA former tenured professor turned entrepreneur\, Paolo Gaudiano is Chief Scientist of Aleria\, President of ARC\, Adjunct at NYU Stern School of Business\, and Chairman of the annual Diversity & Inclusion Research Conference. \nPaolo is a regular Forbes contributor on DEI and author of the 2024 book Measuring Inclusion: Higher Profits and Happier People\, Without Guesswork or Backlash. He has published dozens of academic papers and over 100 blogs in major online publications and has been recognized with numerous awards\, including a Moonshot House Fellowship from the Kravis Center for Social Impact for his work on DEI.

SUMMARY:AESP CARE Book Club Series – Diversifying Power: Why We Need Antiracist\, Feminist Leadership on Climate Energy
DESCRIPTION:Diversifying Power: Why We Need Antiracist\, Feminist Leadership on Climate Energy (2020) is a nonfiction book by Jennie C.

SUMMARY:EBC: Seventh Annual New England Climate Change and Resiliency Summit & Poster Session
DESCRIPTION:It seems like every day there is news of a new climate record and unprecedented events. June 24\, 2025 was the hottest day for the month of June on record in Boston. New England has faced several major flooding events in 2024 and 2025\, including destructive flash floods in Vermont that washed out roads and required multiple water rescues\, and urban flooding in Massachusetts that shut down highways and inundated key infrastructure. These events are no longer outliers; they are becoming the new norm. How is New England addressing the rapidly changing climate? \nThe seventh annual EBC New England Climate Change and Resiliency Summit will bring together leaders from across the region to address that critical question: how do we prepare for the new norm? Each New England state is invited to discuss their programs and priorities for adaptation and resiliency and discuss among themselves and with attendees the challenges and opportunities. \nNew this year\, the Summit will also feature a poster session highlighting climate adaptation and resiliency plans and projects from across the New England region. The poster session offers a chance to explore on-the-ground initiatives\, share ideas\, and connect with practitioners and researchers leading innovative work to build climate resilience in their communities. \nFor those on the frontlines of adaptation and resiliency efforts\, the Summit is a forum to listen\, learn\, network\, and ask questions related to rapidly developing policy and programs connected to climate change. Attendees will leave the event invigorated by the community of professionals and the diverse ways New England is addressing the challenge of climate change.
