We now have a wide window of opportunity to make real, lasting changes for clean energy and reducing carbon pollution. The Inflation Reduction Act and the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law are investing billions of dollars to build clean energy sources, electrify school buses, cap orphaned wells, and much, much more. In addition, there are many incentives for households, and houses of worship, to invest in energy efficiency improvements and renewable energy. People of faith therefore play a vital role in determining how federal funds are spent and the quality of the investments made. Lisa Brenskelle, Houston Climate Communication Coordinator for Texas Interfaith Power & Light and Rebecca McIlwain, Community Outreach Coordinator with Texas Climate Jobs Project, will give an overview of the available federal grants/incentives and talk about what you can do to ensure the money is invested in a way that makes the most impact and promotes justice. Time for interactive Q&A with the speakers will be provided. Please register for this event on www.eventbrite.com at https://www.eventbrite.com/e/federal-incentives-for-energy-efficiency-and-renewables-tickets-608800277017. Texas Climate Jobs Project (TCJP) is a nonprofit organization that supports clean energy that is inclusive to everyone concerned and creates decent work opportunities that leave no one behind. Texas Interfaith Power & Light is the Texas chapter of Interfaith Power & Light, a national nonprofit whose mission is to inspire and mobilize people of faith and conscience to take bold and just action on climate change.
