SUMMARY:MARK EXPLAINS: Proposed Climate Legislation in the Current Massachusetts Legislative Session
DESCRIPTION:There are some very promising pieces of proposed legislation in the Massachusetts legislature right now! If they pass\, it will make a significant difference in carbon emissions for years to come. \nThe first step is to learn about these bills. Once you know about them\, you can join others to campaign and lobby for them. \nMark Dyen will do a presentation for JCAN explaining the different bills. He explains things in a way that you can understand them. And you can ask questions. \nMark Dyen is an energy efficiency and renewable energy advocate and retired energy efficiency entrepreneur. As an advocate since the early 1970’s Mark was involved in the creation and adoption of energy policy reforms\, including the creation of Mass Save\, reforms in electric rate design and adoption of consumer protections\, such as the law that forbids utility shut offs during the winter. Since retirement\, Mark has served as a consultant to the US Department of Energy\, the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority and several energy efficiency and renewable energy companies.

SUMMARY:Tisha B’Av Gathering in Marblehead
DESCRIPTION:As the sun sets on Tisha B’Av\, the most sorrowful day on the Jewish calendar\, we will gather to read Eicha (Lamentations)—an ancient text mourning the catastrophic destruction of Jerusalem 2\,500 years ago: its women\, children\, animals\, buildings\, gates\, and walls. Together\, we will take turns reading from the text (bring your phone to follow along)\, and reflect on its relevance today. \nIn this era of climate chaos—of floods\, fires\, and mass displacement—we feel the destruction anew. Tisha B’Av offers us a moment to grieve not only the ruins of the past\, but also the devastation happening now across the globe: Gaza\, Congo\, Sudan\, Yemen\, Nigeria\, Syria—and here\, in the United States. \nAs we mourn\, we renew our resolve to take action. The anguished poetry of Lamentations can inspire us to support policies and practices that prevent further harm to our communities and our planet. \nWe are each part of the long\, sacred labor of healing and repair. We refuse to look away. \nLet us grieve together. Let us strengthen one another. Let us repair the world. \n  \nSchedule \n🌊 6:00 PM – Potluck Dinner* (Come early (at 4 pm for a swim!))\n📖 8:00 PM – 9 PM Reading of Lamentations and Community Reflection

SUMMARY:Induction Cooktop Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Induction Cooktop Webinar! Andee Krasner (Greater Boston Physicians for Social Responsibility and co-author of report on gas stove health risks) discuss gas stove risks and the benefits of induction cooking. We also hear from neighbors using induction cooktops\, plus plenty of time for Q&A. \nDid you know cooking with gas might be making your kitchen air worse than outdoor pollution? Gas stoves release harmful emissions like nitrogen dioxide and carbon monoxide\, which can even increase asthma risk in kids. Induction stoves heat faster than gas and are super efficient—plus\, they’re safer (you can’t burn your hand on the stove!). New rebates and tax credits make switching to induction more affordable than ever. \n\nLearn more about heat pumps and solar here – [https://bit.ly/plugIN-Wayland4]  and other actions you can take to reduce emissions www.energizewayland.org\n\nThis event is sponsored by plugIN MetroWest\, in partnership with MassEnergize.

SUMMARY:Climate Activism Ahead After A Decade of Jewish Climate Action
DESCRIPTION:Facing the second half of this crucial decade\, can we still meet climate goals? After a decade as a leader in community-based climate activism and a career in clean energy\, Fred Davis will share a forward-looking view. Change is constant\, as climate itself continues to demonstrate\, so can we humans still make transitions quickly enough? It’s almost 2025/5785\, and the question will soon be moot\, one way or the other. With so much going on\, which way to look? Whatever your climate concern\, whatever activist community\, we hope you will appreciate this well-informed yet frank assessment\, informed both by faith and first principles.\n\n\nAbout Fred Davis: From the 1970s Energy Crisis to today’s Climate Emergency\, both as a professional and an advocate\, Fred has been a leader in clean energy. In the past decade\, he has been at the forefront of communities transitioning toward a low-carbon future\, decarbonizing with heatpumps\, solar\, and electric vehicles. \nFred ran his business wholesaling energy-efficient lighting products\, and was a leader in that field. He helped devise the first national standards for lamp efficiency and chaired the first national conference on energy-efficient lighting. He helped introduce the world to compact fluorescent light bulbs\, to electronic ballasts\, and to efficient LED products.\n\nIn both municipal and faith-based communities\, Fred has been active as an organizer driving community decarbonization. As member\, then Chair 2019-22\, of Medfield Energy Committee\, he helped to effect solar and efficiency projects\, implement a climate action plan\, and promote the potential for net-zero in the massive redevelopment of a historic state hospital campus. \nAs the top energy expert at Jewish Climate Action Network\, and President since 2022\, he’s been helping to lead over 120 synagogues and their congregants toward decarbonization. Fred devised curriculum ideally suited for volunteer green teams\, and mounted impactful programs such as Solar for Synagogues\, and Accelerating Heatpumps. \nFred also currently serves on the Board of MCAN (Massachusetts Climate Action Network)\, and the Program Committee of NESEA’s Building Energy Conference. These days\, Fred is most interested in training local climate leaders in the singularly impactful peer-to-peer program\, Decarbonizers of [your community].

SUMMARY:Let's Talk Electricity Rates
DESCRIPTION:With summer air conditioning season underway\, let’s discuss: what makes MA electricity costs so high? Rates in this state are about twice the national average. Is that because we consume less? Because we have the best energy programs? \nHow can we respond\, in personal choices\, as well as with policy changes? And how do high rates impact the state’s transition to heat pumps and electric vehicles\, essential for climate? \nElectricity providers may soon offer time-varying electric rates with new electric meters now being installed.  Shifting when we use electricity could reduce power grid peaks\, lower electric rates for everyone\, and allow some high-emitting peak power stations to be closed permanently. Heat pumps and EVs would become more financially compelling\, benefiting the climate. \nBut will these new rates benefit justice communities?  Are they too complicated? Or might new AI-enabled apps and devices make this easier to do? Let’s consider the possibilities. \nAbout Harvey Michaels \n  \nHarvey Michaels\, a member of JCAN’s “Legs and Regs” committee\, will lead the discussion\, following some introductory material.  He serves as Lecturer of Energy Management Innovation within MIT’s Sloan Sustainability program\, and also advises energy and climate policymakers on electric rate innovations and utility energy efficiency policies. His focus this year has been the needed transition to heat pump and EVs\, and how AI-enabled smart homes may help.  Harvey’s earlier career included leadership of several energy efficiency companies.

SUMMARY:Dig Deep: Affect Change Through Stories
DESCRIPTION:Trying to convince people there is a climate crisis with common sense and science doesn’t work. People listen through their emotions\, not through their reason. In this six-week class\, you will learn a simple technique to write an emotional story from your authentic self. You will learn about the three voices of writing\, and how to create an image/moment and list its 7 basic elements. You will also learn how to construct a story by stringing together bookended image/moments. The focus will be on constructing compelling stories from news or scientific articles that involve climate change and environmental justice issues. At the end of the class\, we will have a public reading of our work. Whether you want to explain the science of climate change or the Jewish concept of repairing the world\, learn to write from your deep\, authentic voice.

SUMMARY:JCAN Radical Residential Retrofitting
DESCRIPTION:What was radical yesterday is reasonable today. Households all across the country are grappling with sudden spikes in energy costs\, and a very short window to decarbonize. We and our fellow congregants are looking to upgrade our leak prone houses\, but oy\, what to do? \n  \nFor years\, Rachel White (Byggmeister) and Audrey Schulman (HEET) have pioneered brand-new approaches to retrofitting our aging homes. Now these two leading lights will be sharing with us findings they recently presented at Building Energy Boston 2023. White will provide a definitive evaluation of the ‘superinsulation’ mode of retrofit. And Schulman will report on the current status of neighborhood thermal networks\, now under construction in many locations. With a flood of federal funding\, finding the optimal approach today involves questions not even broached a decade ago\, and may not be what we expect. The residential sector must decarbonize at an accelerated rate. Are we and our co-congregants reducing our homes’ carbon footprints radically enough? \n FREE AND ONLINE \nAbout the presenters \nRachel White is CEO of Byggmeister Design/Build\, a nearly 40 year-old residential remodeling company that is striving to serve as an exemplary steward of homes and to prepare them to meet the challenges of the 21st century. Rachel has been affiliated with Byggmeister since 2008\, when she hired the firm to renovate her house. What started as an effort to reduce the energy and carbon footprint of her own home became her life’s work. Prior to joining Byggmeister Rachel taught modern Jewish history to adult learners. She holds a PhD in Religious Studies from Brown University and a BA in Religion from Haverford College. \nAudrey Schulman co-founded HEET (Home Energy Efficiency Team) in 2008. A lover of maps\, she created the first-in-the-nation statewide zoomable public map of utility-reported gas leaks. Through her co-leadership of the FixOurPipes.org study\, she helped municipalities coordinate with utilities to find solutions to fix gas leaks faster and at less expense. She started the Large Volume Leak Study\, which discovered a way for gas utilities to identify super-emitting gas leaks and repair them. Together with Zeyneb Magavi\, she has developed HEET’s innovative solution to transition gas utilities from gas to networked geothermal\, or systems of networked ground source heat pumps. There are several gas utilities now installing thermal networks in Massachusetts and New York.  \nTime: 7:00 – 8:30 PM (Eastern time)

SUMMARY:A Tree of Life Workshop - Online 3-part March 15\,22\,29
DESCRIPTION:Are you stressed out by life and the state of the world? A climate or social justice activist? Dealing with trauma or loss in your personal life? \nJoin Rabbi Katy Allen for a three-part online series of multimedia interactions and meditations on a journey through trauma and healing with her new book\, A Tree of Life: A Story in Word\, Image and Text\, with photographs by Mary North Allen. Give yourself the opportunity to transition to a greater level of faith and acceptance in the face of personal loss and despair with the world. Join with others to use art\, music\, movement\, and more to connect circles of personal\, communal\, and global grief and healing. \nThis workshop will take place during three 1 1/2 to 2-hour sessions\, giving participants time to experience the full trajectory of the healing process. You need register only once. Dates are March 15\, 22\, and 29 at 7:00-9:00PM Eastern time. REGISTER HERE \nParticipants are encouraged to spend time with the book ahead of the workshop in order to enhance their experience that day. \nThis event is sponsored by the Jewish Climate Action Network-MA\, Massachusetts Interfaith Power and Light\, Common Street Spiritual Center\, Open Spirit Center\, and Ma’yan Tikvah. \nIf you choose the ticket with the ebook option\, the ebook can be purchased here. \nA reflections from A Tree of Life Workshop participants: \n“It was a powerful\, healing experience. I experienced deeper insights…Each photo and text generated pages of journal writing for me. I experienced a sense of comfort in seeing the written words. Along with the timelessness and grounding of the trees\, it further informed me that G!d is truly present here.” – P.S. \n“I experienced the sessions as being rich and revelatory…so many memories\, making connections\, experiencing deeper insights…. I don’t know Hebrew but I experienced a sense of comfort in seeing the written words. Along with the timelessness and grounding of the trees\, it further informed me that G!d is truly present here.” –J.G. \n“I think your book is brilliant! Having so few words\, it afforded greater space and freedom for things to emerge than if paragraphs had been written. And the words you wrote are so precise\, expressing so much in terms of pain\, joy\, healing and love. The fact that the sensitive and moving photographs were taken by your mother…wow\, what a tribute. A beautiful piece of work and\, as you said in your introduction\, personal and universal. I can see it being used as a retreat…one day\, several days…and I trust that\, however it is used\, it will be transforming for those who experience it.” –J.G. \nRabbi Katy Z. Allen is the co-founder of the Jewish Climate Action Network-MA and the founder and rabbi of Ma’yan Tikvah – A Wellspring of Hope\, a congregation that holds services outdoors and has a growing outdoor children’s learning program\, Y’ladim BaTeva (Children in Nature). She received her MA in Jewish Studies from Hebrew College in 1999\, her rabbinic ordination in 2005 from the Academy for Jewish Religion in Yonkers\, NY\, and her chaplaincy board certification from Neshama: Association for Jewish Chaplains in 2010. Prior to her ordination\, Allen worked as a high school science teacher\, a writer and editor of science educational materials\, and a Jewish educator. She worked as a staff chaplain at the Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston for 10 years and then served part-time as a hospice chaplain while facilitating spirituality and Earth programs at Open Spirit in Framingham\, MA. Rabbi Katy lives in Wayland\, MA\, with her spouse\, Gabi Mezger\, who leads the singing at Ma’yan Tikvah. She loves to walk in the woods\, ride her bicycle\, and tend her garden.

SUMMARY:Induction cooking - no more gas!
DESCRIPTION:Missed it? We’ve got you covered: watch the recording here.\n \n \nIf you cook with gas\, you may not be aware of the drawbacks… and the alternative!\n \n\nGas stoves likely make the air in your kitchen more polluted than recommended outdoor clean air quality standards Burning gas releases nitrogen dioxide\, small particulate matter\, and carbon monoxide\, all components of air pollution. Cooking on a gas stove increases kids’ risk of current asthma by 42 percent. Ventilation can work well to remove air pollution but only if the exhaust hood over the gas stove is strong enough\,if it vents outdoors and you remember to use it.  \nOnce your stove is ready for replacement\, your best bet is to replace it with an electric or induction stove. An Induction stove is not your usual electric stove\, which can take longer than gas to heat food! An induction stove cooks food faster even than a gas stove\, and temperature regulation is just as precise as on a gas stove. It uses magnetic waves which only heat the pan\, not the surface of the stove\, so it is never so hot that you can burn your hand on the stove\, even when cooking. This also makes it more efficient than gas and electric stoves. Costs of induction burners and stoves vary widely. You can purchase a two-burner induction cooktop for about $125 and the price goes up from there. \n\n\nAndee Krasner (Greater Boston Physicians for Social Responsibility and co-author with Rocky Mountain Institute of a report on gas stoves)\, will talk about the health risk of gas cooking. We’ll also have testimonials of neigbors who use induction\, and lots of time for Q&A. \nA collaboration of Energize Wayland with Green Lincoln\, Energize Lexington\, Jewish Climate Action Network\, Harvard Energize\, and Green Newton.
