Gov. Bysiewicz’s Bio” el_class=”bio-toggle”]\nSworn in on January 9\, 2019\, Susan Bysiewicz is serving her first term as Connecticut’s 109th Lieutenant Governor. Lt. Gov. Bysiewicz’s and Gov. Ned Lamont’s ﬁrst priority is to grow good-paying jobs and investing in the state’s future. \nLt. Gov. Bysiewicz is continuing her commitment to economic growth that made her a leading voice for Connecticut residents and small businesses while she served as Secretary of the State from 1999 to 2011. As Secretary of the State\, she helped thousands of businesses grow\, registered thousands of voters\, cut bureaucratic red tape\, honored veterans\, and fought to keep elections fair. \nAs a state representative in the Connecticut General Assembly\, representing the towns of Middletown\, Middlefield\, and Durham\, Bysiewicz wrote legislation to ban dangerous “drive-through” mastectomies and ensure that women being treated for breast cancer had proper care. She also fought political patronage and wrote the law to ban lobbyists from giving gifts to legislators. \nAs a business lawyer and a job creator\, she has helped over sixty companies access millions of dollars in capital\, expand their businesses\, and create thousands of jobs in Connecticut. \nLt. Gov. Bysiewicz was raised the proud granddaughter of immigrants who came to Connecticut from Poland and Greece with nothing but hopes for a better future. After many years of factory work\, they saved enough to buy a farm in Middletown that became Bysiewicz’s childhood home. Growing up and working on the farm\, she and her siblings learned the values of hard work\, education\, and persistence. \nLt. Gov. Bysiewicz graduated from Middletown High School\, Yale University and Duke Law School. She is the author of Ella: A Biography of Ella Grasso\, Connecticut’s 83rd governor. Bysiewicz and her husband David Donaldson reside in Middletown. \n[/mk_toggle][vc_empty_space height=”50px”][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner][vc_empty_space height=”15px”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1561121272600{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]\nPanelists:\n[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”10px”][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″ offset=”vc_col-md-2 vc_col-sm-offset-0 vc_col-xs-offset-3 vc_col-xs-6″][vc_single_image image=”21515″ img_size=”170×170″ alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_shadow”][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”3/4″ offset=”vc_col-md-10 vc_col-sm-offset-0 vc_col-xs-offset-2 vc_col-xs-8″][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1688345433277{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]Maria Belen Power\nUndersecretary of Environmental Justice & Equity\nMassachusetts Executive Office of Energy and Environmental Affairs[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”30px”][mk_toggle title=”Maria’s Bio” el_class=”bio-toggle”]\nMaria Belen Power grew up in Nicaragua in the aftermath of the revolution.

These include projects associated with aquatic and terrestrial habitat connectivity\, insect population declines\, policy review and advocacy\, and most frequently these days – projects associated with renewable energy. As the lead author on Maine Audubon’s 2019 publication\, Renewable Energy and Wildlife in Maine\, she had an opportunity to dive into the literature to help the public understand the potential impacts to wildlife and their habitats from the siting\, construction\, and operations of renewable energy infrastructure as well as impact avoidance techniques. She also oversaw the development of Maine Audubon’s Renewable Energy Siting Tool which aims to provide resources developers and decision-makers the information they need to locate solar and land-based wind projects in areas that avoid or minimize negative impacts to important wildlife habitats. She was a member of the state’s Environment and Wildlife Working Group for the Maine Offshore Wind Initiative and currently sits on the Advisory Board for the Maine Offshore Wind Research Consortium. She has a Bachelor of Arts degree from Bowdoin College with a major in biology\, and a Master of Science degree in Wildlife and Fisheries Conservation from the University of Maine in Amherst.

SUMMARY:MassCEC's Built Environment Plus: Embodied Carbon Reduction in Buildings
DESCRIPTION:Iterative life cycle assessment (LCA) through the course of design offers a powerful method for vetting embodied carbon reduction strategies. This session will walk through key priorities and examples of how to put LCA into practice during design and procurement. First\, it will cover target setting\, building certifications\, scoping considerations\, and structural system selection during early design. Then\, it will discuss practical examples of assembly comparisons and whole building life cycle assessment (WBLCA) on vastly different building types and scopes including offices\, data centers\, multi-family\, and commercial fit-outs.

SUMMARY:CWEEL's Celebrating Women in Engineering
DESCRIPTION:In 2023\, more women than ever are skilling\, re-skilling\, and upskilling across various industries.  As the world becomes increasingly interconnected\, some gender gaps are also being filled through online learning.  However\, gaps remain substantial in terms of representation in STEM fields – particularly in ICT and engineering.  The benefits of diversity in these fields are widely acknowledged – greater innovation and better business returns.  To celebrate International Women in Engineering Day (INWED) and to encourage greater representation in this field\, especially as the world strives for a cleaner energy future\, CWEEL is hosting a panel discussion featuring several women from around the globe who pursued and have been thriving in the engineering profession.
