February Interfaith Environmental Conference Call

Please join us on Tuesday, February 22nd at 10:00 a.m. for our next monthly interfaith conference call. In this month's call, we will focus on rolling electricity blackouts and learn about Austin's Interfaith Environmental Network (IEN).

Call in to explore with us what happened with Texas' electric grid on February 2nd (the "rolling blackouts" day). Mike Sloan, a Texas Interfaith Power & Light Advisory Committee Member, will provide an overview of that situation and an update about the hearings that have followed. Then we will hear from Reverend Bo Townsend, a founding member of IEN, about how this interfaith group got started, what they've been up to and their plans for the future. We will also allot time for callers to ask questions, share ideas and connect.
