Speaker<\/strong>: Tanya Rucosky, Sunrise County Economic Council<\/p>\nWe live in a world in which we have often unintentionally gone to our corners. Yet change, real enduring change, cannot happen without building consensus. How can we do that in a world in which \u201cI am right, and they are wrong\u201d attitudes dominate our televisions and newsfeeds?\u00a0 The Community Resilience Partnership is building community buy-in to lower Maine\u2019s carbon emissions and protect its residents from climate change through a thoughtful bottom-up approach which has seen 30% of Maine\u2019s communities enroll. This talk will explore how Maine Won\u2019t Waits\u2019 Climate Goals are being met not just in traditionally liberal but also more conservative parts of the state.<\/p>\n
Tanya Rucosky<\/strong> is one of four regional coordinators working in the state helping communities access funds and technical assistance through the Community Resilience\u00a0Partnership. Originally focused on water quality in the Appalachian coal fields, Tanya has worked with diverse communities in Asia, Australia and now in the Downeast region to improve their environments and quality of life.\u00a0 Trained as a natural resource manager and archivist, Tanya has an enduring interest in \u201cand\u201d as well as a tenacious commitment to the practicalities of, \u201cgetting things done.\u201d<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
