SUMMARY:Jews Against ICE Phonebank: Not One More Dollar for ICE
DESCRIPTION:Join Bend the Arc and T’ruah to call Jews who have critical Senators that need to hear our demand to stop funding ICE violence. Right now\, Congress is considering funneling billions of dollars to ICE’s budget. We cannot let one more dollar go to the cruel and unjust detention and deportation machine. They need to hear from their constituents loud and clear: we don’t want more blank checks for ICE. \nWhether it is your first time or your tenth time phonebanking\, all are welcome!

SUMMARY:Housing and Climate with Dan Ruben
DESCRIPTION:We need to think about the intersection of climate change and housing beyond our HVAC systems. \nHow does climate change affect housing costs\, particularly in the face of growing migration? \nHow does housing affect climate change\, particularly as we seek to build new units? How can changes to zoning laws affect greenhouse gas emissions and save trees? \nDan Ruben teaches Sustainable Hospitality and Sustainable Tourism at Boston University and the University of Southern Maine. He wrote the textbook\, “Sustainable Hospitality.” \nDan founded a sustainable hotel organization\, Boston Green Tourism\, in 2005 and led it until 2019. In that role\, he organized over 100 sustainable hotel workshops and webinars for local\, state\, and U.S. hoteliers. Dan was the 2014 Sustainable Lodging Person of the Year. Boston Green Tourism earned an EPA Environmental Merit Award. \nPreviously\, Dan was the executive director of the Coalition for Environmentally Responsible Conventions\, which implemented environmental best practices at the 2004 Democratic and Republican National Conventions. CERC won the international Environmentally Responsible Meeting Award and two EPA awards. \nDan is the Chair of Green Newton. He leads its Building Standards Committee which persuaded developers to build Passive House\, all-electric\, low embodied carbon developments\, and persuaded the City of Newton to upgrade its sustainability requirements for new buildings.

SUMMARY:Help Energize Climate Voters!
DESCRIPTION:Research shows that majorities of registered voters prefer candidates who support action on the climate\, want development of clean energy sources\, and support policies to reduce the pollution that causes global warming. However\, an estimated 11.2 million environmentalists did not vote in the 2024 presidential election\, and many more skip midterm\, state\, and local elections. \nOur speaker\, Nathaniel Stinnett\, will share strategies to motivate the climate voter.  He is the Founder & Executive Director of the Environmental Voter Project.   Named one of five global “climate visionaries” by The New York Times in 2018\, and dubbed “The Voting Guru” by Grist magazine\, Stinnett is a frequent expert speaker on cutting-edge campaign techniques and the behavioral science behind getting people to vote.
