Woodstock community members participate in a climate resilience workshop facilitated by the Center for an Ecology-Based Economy in 2022. Woodstock has since enrolled in Maine’s Community Resilience Partnership and received a grant to conduct an energy audit, install heat pumps in the town office, and establish a committee to manage future grant applications.
WEST PARIS — A public meeting will be held on February 6 from 6-7:30 p.m. in the West Paris town office to inform West Paris’s enrollment in Maine’s Community Resilience Partnership. Community members are invited to a public workshop to inform West Paris’s enrollment in Maine’s Community Resilience Partnership, a program that helps communities reduce energy usage and emissions while adapting to extreme temperatures, flooding, and other climate impacts through direct support and grants of up to $50,000.
Center for an Ecology-Based Economy will review Maine’s Community Resilience Partnership, facilitate a discussion about current and future climate-related impacts in western Maine, and welcome your ideas for a resilient West Paris. The meeting will be held on February 6 at 6 p.m. in the West Paris town office and on Zoom. Refreshments will be provided. If you would like Zoom access or a stipend (e.g. to cover costs of childcare, transportation, missing a work shift, etc.) to participate, please contact the Center for an Ecology-Based Economy at resilience@ecologybasedeconomy.org or call (207) 739-2101.
