Great Decisions” will meet tonight at 6:00 p.m. in the Walpole Town Library. All are welcome to our discussion of renewable energy, its environmental impacts, international competition for climate technology and the race to net-zero. Joining us will be Steve Grenier, VP of Electrical at E.E. Houghton Co., whose knowledge of green energy, heat-pumps and the transition to renewable energy locally will provide answers to many of our questions.

We begin with a 25-minute “Master Class” video prepared by the Foreign Policy Association. The relevant reading is the second article in the “Great Decisions” 2024 Edition: “Global Trade and Green Energy” by Bud Ward, environmental journalist and educator. This article is available at the library or via email by contacting Jane Malmberg, Library Director: jmalmberg@walpoletownlibrary.org

For those wishing to join via Zoom, you must request the Zoom link from Jane Malmberg. Please note that we are unable to show the “Master Class” on Zoom, so we suggest you join the meeting at 6:25 p.m.

Join us at the library tonight — 6:00 p.m. on May 6 — to consider renewable energy and its challenges.
